What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Rotisserie chicken
For residents who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.
How we price a hog roast day
Each price is built from:
- The date and time of year
- How long the roast and service take
- Whether you want china
- Access to the cooking area
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- The venue or postcode

Your questions about a hog roast day in Nutbourne
Is Nutbourne close to London?
Roughly 57 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

Outdoors under cover, on a level spot clear of emergency access and away from opening windows.
What about residents who don’t eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We do not provide halal meat.
How far ahead 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.
Can you carve thinly?
Plates with thin slices are easy to arrange.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Count families and staff too
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request thin slices
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
Give us a contact, such as the activities lead.
Plates rather than rolls suit many residents.
Working with your venue
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
