Damerham questions
Is Damerham too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. We will explain the details with your quote.
Should I cook it myself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
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.
What the cooking area needs
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- Lighting on the path from the party to the serving area
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
- Vehicle access close by
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
