How it works
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Late-September events in Staines-upon-Thames lose the light at about 7:05pm, so evening trading needs lights.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- 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.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
