Step by step

We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook. At midsummer, it’s light in Birch Hill until about 9:25pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

  1. Tell us about your party: date, address and numbers.
  2. We check the garden or drive and quote.
  3. We arrive early and get the roast going.
  4. At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
  5. We tidy up and pack away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
  • Think about shelter for your guests

Catered or do it yourself?

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

If you’re 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.
