What is the estimated cooking time for a Spit Roast?

At theo’s a Whole lamb cooks to perfection in 2-3 hours. After the Hog / Lamb is cooked we will carve the meat (30-45 minutes) into our machine where we baste it with our amazing (and very secret!) basting sauce. Now we are ready to serve...

Do you bring tables to serve the food on?

We do bring our own Table and Table Cloth, although if you have your own colour scheme going please provide your own table cloth as ours might be a bit of a clash.

Do you need access to power (electrical) ?

YES!

When would you need final numbers and menu choice by?

Will you need a map/directions to our venue?

We have GPS systems so usually a postcode and street name + number is sufficient. If however you know by experience the address is hard to find please be so kind as to send through some directions.

What about vegetarians, do you cater for them?

We definitely can assist with Vegetarian options, please enquire when requesting your quotation.

Would it be possible to taste your cuisine before placing an order?

Due to the nature of our business this could be a bit difficult as most of our functions are private, and we can't really do a Whole Lamb just for one or 2 people to have a tasting. We can send you some trade references to put your mind at ease.

Can you do a Spit Roast indoors?

We do prefer an outdoor space for cooking, Due to the nature of our machinery (gas operated) there is no smoke and mess, so in theory it works very much like an oven. The only problem would be heat detecting fire alarms. These are found in some indoor spaces and would be a problem seeing that the machines does give off a fair share of heat

What about leftovers?

Please make sure to have some extra dishes/bowls at hand for there's very likely to be some leftovers which would make for a festive breakfast the next day!

How does payment work?

We require a 50% deposit in order to firm up a booking. This can be paid via transferring the money straight into our bank account. As soon as we receive your booking form we will reply with the details on how to pay this. The balance is payable on the day through either cash or proof of on line payment. If you want to do a bank transfer for the balance please make sure to do this in advance
