Step by step
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. In late May, sunset in Chiltington is about 8:50pm, while at midsummer it’s about 9:15pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- You get a check on the date and pitch, and a quote.
- On the day we set up under cover and get the hog on.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Name a contact for the day
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
