What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- The date and time of the event
- What the outdoor space is like
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china

What happens on the day
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. Early starts matter for a hog roast at base, and in December Neasden is dark by about 3:55pm, so we may set up under lights.
- Share the location details.
- We confirm where we set up.
- We roast under cover at base.
- Service is quick.
- We tidy up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Neasden is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
