About the food
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Organising for someone else?
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
Full catering or machine hire?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Beenham Stocks: your questions answered
Is Beenham Stocks close to London?
Roughly 45 miles from the centre of London.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
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 should we sort out beforehand?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Can you do turkey for a Christmas party?
Yes, roast turkey is available for Christmas events, as well as the hog.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Do you provide china?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

Planning for dietary needs

At the agreed time, we carve hot and serve, carved fresh.

What happens on the day
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. A lunchtime Christmas party in Beenham Stocks is the only one in good daylight, as it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.
