Little Horwood questions
Is Little Horwood close to London?
Roughly 46 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come out to small places like Little Horwood?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we’ll check.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, so you are not left with the mess.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Do you provide allergen information?
Allergen details are provided for your team to check.
Can families and staff join in?
Of course: include them in your numbers.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will confirm the space with your quote.
What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing usually contains gluten.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we’ll bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.
For event organisers in Little Horwood
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Tell us about dietary needs in advance
- Halal isn’t offered
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Request thin slices
We serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
Add potatoes and apple sauce.
How we price a hog roast day
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- How long the roast and service take
- The journey to the venue
- Site access
- Menu choices and extras
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Details that help
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- The address or postcode
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Roughly how many people
It is easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.
The process
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Late May in Little Horwood has light until about 8:55pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.
- We talk through residents’ needs with your team.
- You get a clear price.
- We cook in the grounds.
- Food goes out on plates.
- We tidy up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
