The process
Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we have agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. In December, it’s dark in Blackmoor by about 4:00pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We start in daylight and cook into the dark.
- It starts with your date, venue and rough numbers.
- We check the venue and send a price.
- We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- We carve and serve hot when you are ready.
- Afterwards we pack up and leave the spot tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Menu choices and extras
- Site access
- The date and time of year
- Numbers
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Getting an accurate quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Allergies we should know about
- Any venue rules
- The address or postcode
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Send us your details through our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and our chef carves it to order.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there’s a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so nobody misses out.
FAQs for Blackmoor
What’s the nearest station to Blackmoor?
The closest is Liss station, roughly 3.5 miles away.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the South Downs National Park?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
What about Christmas markets?
Yes. Hot rolls on a cold evening sell well.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We’ll bring the rest.
