For planners, venues and organisers

Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

The menu, dish by dish

Roast pork

The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.

A hog roast compared with other options

For a Christmas fair, hot pork rolls are always popular. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

Why book our hog roast in Mill Meads

  • Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • All the equipment comes with us
  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
  • Fresh carving at the serving station

Read our prices page or our hog roast cost guide.

What affects the price in Mill Meads

Each price is built from:

  • The number of people
  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • Whether you want china
  • Travel to Mill Meads

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

Details that help

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • Where the event is
  • Which meats and sides you’d like
  • Any venue rules
  • Any dietary needs or allergies

We need a few details to quote: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Use our quote form.

Planning for dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken
  • Keep vegetarian food labelled
  • Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list

The cooking area and the path to it need lighting after dark.

Roast potatoes suit a winter menu.

Common questions in Mill Meads

What if our house in Mill Meads has no side access?

Often, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.

Could you cook in Bob's Park?

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

Can you trade at our Christmas fair?

Yes. Hot rolls on a cold evening sell well.

How much does a hog roast cost?

Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.

How big a hog will we need?

The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.

When should we book our Christmas party?

As early as possible, especially for Fridays and Saturdays. Ask as soon as you know your date.

Do you offer gluten-free rolls?

Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

Can you cater outdoors in December?

Hot food suits winter perfectly.

Should I cook it myself?

Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

How it works

We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. In December, it is dark in Mill Meads by about 3:55pm, 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.

  1. Ask early for a December date.
  2. We check your venue and send a quote.
  3. We arrive while it’s light and set up under cover.
  4. We serve pork, turkey and sides.
  5. We tidy up and leave.

Preparing for the day

  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
  • Think about shelter for your guests
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
