How it works
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. In December, Badgers Mount is dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Let us know about tight access
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
