About the food
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
What happens on the day
Here’s how the day normally runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. By late September, sunset near Warnford is about 7:10pm, so plan lights for evening service.
- We start with the location, call times and numbers.
- We check the route and send a price.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
Getting ready for the day
