Step by step
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Summer events in Flimwell have daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer and about 7:00pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We tidy the pitch.
