What affects the price in Norham Manor
We do not use a fixed price list, because every shoot is different. The main factors are:
- Plates or china
- How long the roast and service take
- Access to the cooking area
- Season and day of the week
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.

- Your menu choices
- The venue or postcode

Planners, venues and businesses

Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
What happens on the day
The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. On a winter shoot near Norham Manor, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
- Tell us the base location.
- We agree our position with locations.
- We roast under cover at base.
- Service is quick.
- We leave base tidy.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Let us know about tight access
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
