Organising for someone else?
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

Britwell Salome questions
Is Britwell Salome 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 Britwell Salome close to London?
Roughly 41 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Can we have roast turkey?
Yes: turkey and pork together suit most Christmas parties.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Can you trade at our Christmas fair?
Yes. Hot rolls on a cold evening sell well.
A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
