About the food
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Where the roaster can go in Chesham
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- Indoor space for eating
- A safe distance from anything that could catch the heat
- A level spot outdoors with lighting nearby
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

For event organisers in Chesham
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

A hog roast or other catering?
At a winter fair, a hog roast stall is one of the most popular hot-food options. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually 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.
