Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?
Plenty of people try cooking paella for their own party. The usual problems are a pan too big for the burner, too much rice and stirring once the rice is in. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the cooking.
Cooking it yourself? Test your pan and burner first, keep the stock hot, and don’t stir once the rice goes in. And keep children and pets well away from the burner.
Space, weather and the venue
No two venues are the same, so we’ll ask about yours before we confirm. In general, we need:
- Flat, firm ground for the cooking area
- Space well away from trees, fences and gazebo walls
- Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and we will say what we think before you book.
