- We check the route and send a price.
- We agree where we set up and when we arrive.
- We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
- Afterwards we clear our spot at base.
How to prepare
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
