How the day works

A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. For an autumn event in Sulhamstead Bannister Upper End, sunset is around 7:10pm in late September, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.

  1. Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
  2. We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
  3. We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
  4. We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
  5. We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

What we serve, dish by dish

Crackling

Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.

Rotisserie chicken

Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.

Should I cook it myself?

If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
