Bledlow questions
Do you come out to small places like Bledlow?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What’s the nearest station to Bledlow?
Princes Risborough station, about 1.3 miles east of the centre.
Do you come to Bledlow?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll confirm availability.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, so you are not left with the mess.
Can you carve thinly?
Plates are often easier for residents.
Why choose a hog roast in Bledlow?
Compared with a barbecue run by staff, we take the cooking off your team. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Planners, venues and businesses
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Ask us to carve thinly for residents
- Tell us about dietary needs in advance
We set up under cover in the grounds, following your sign-in and safety rules.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.
The process
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. For a summer hog roast day in Bledlow, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:25pm, which makes garden events easy. In December, with dark by about 3:55pm, lunchtime is best.
