About the food
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which suits bigger events.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we’ll bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.
How it works
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. On a winter shoot near New Addington, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:20pm.
- We start with the location, call times and numbers.
- We check the route and send a price.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
How to prepare
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early
