A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a trip out, a hog roast at the home is easier for residents with mobility needs. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why us?
- Carved to order by a chef
- Timed around your day
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
Prices and what affects them
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Site access
- The date and time of year
- How many people are eating
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Dietary requirements
- Your date and serving time
- A photo of the cooking area
- Anything the venue has asked for
It is easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.

What we serve, dish by dish

Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.

Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your residents will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In late May, sunset in Norwood Hill is about 8:50pm, so residents and families can stay outside late.

Questions from Norwood Hill
Can you do a hog roast in Edolph's Copse?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you come out to small places like Norwood Hill?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Can you serve at lunch?
Tell us the time that suits residents, and we will be ready.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it’s always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
Who serves?
You do not need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Looking after everyone
Some residents won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Halal isn’t offered
- Tell us who does not eat pork
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
- Modified diets should come from the home’s kitchen
Give us a contact, such as the activities lead.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
For planners, venues and organisers
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
