The process
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your visitors will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Late-September events in Crowell Hill lose the light at about 7:05pm, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Send final numbers in good time

Planners, venues and businesses
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
