For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Why choose a hog roast in Offington?
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast copes much better with the cold. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Why Offington hosts choose us
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Sides to make it a full meal

Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- The journey to the venue
- Whether you want china
- Numbers
- How long the roast and service take
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Getting an accurate quote
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Your menu choices
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The address or postcode
- Dietary requirements
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the Christmas party is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll.
Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
How it works
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. In Offington, December daylight ends around 4:00pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.
- Tell us when and where the party is.
- We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
- The roast starts in the afternoon.
- Our chef carves and staff serve.
- We pack up, even in the rain.
How to prepare
