How it works
When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Stroude are dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- 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 serve to order through the event.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
How to prepare
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
How to get a price
Send us the date, the address or GU25 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Use our quote form.
