What happens on the day
The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook. Summer events in Hurst Green have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- 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.
Preparing for the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Clearance from other stalls and tents
- Permission for cooking on the site
- A firm way on and off the field
