Questions from Oakley Green
Is Oakley Green too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is Oakley Green close to London?
About 25 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
Can you do soft food?
Modified meals should come from your kitchen. We will give your team the information they need.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.

Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, which keeps it hot and moist.

Each price is built from:

A hog roast compared with other options
Next to staff cooking, your staff can focus on residents. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What you get with us
- Carved by our chef in front of your residents
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
See how we price or the cost guide.
Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
