Weedon questions
Is Weedon close to London?
About 40 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.
Can you do soft food?
Texture-modified meals should be prepared by the home’s kitchen to each resident’s plan. We will share allergen and menu details.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Do you need power or water?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
What allergens are in the food?
You’ll get allergen details for everything. Stuffing normally contains gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.
Is a hog roast right for your care home event?
Next to the usual lunch, a hog roast day feels like an outing without leaving home. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

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 date and time of year
- The journey to the venue
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
What we need to know
For a quick, accurate price, send us:
- Your date and serving time
- A picture of the cooking area
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- The venue or postcode
Send us the date, the address or HP22 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Fill in our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
The process
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. By late September, the light in Weedon goes at about 7:05pm, so autumn events are best at lunchtime.
- The home tells us the date, numbers and serving time.
- We check the grounds and send a price.
- We arrive early and start the roast.
- We serve in the dining room or garden, as you prefer.
- We tidy up and leave calmly.
Getting ready for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Name a contact for the day
Getting a price
