Organising for someone else?
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Step by step
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Bladon are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
Before we arrive
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Give us a contact number for the day
