For planners, venues and organisers
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
What comes off the roaster

Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children generally like it too.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

A hog roast compared with other options
Next to grilling to order, carving is quicker for big numbers. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

- A level spot at base for the roaster
- The location manager’s agreement
