Questions from Penn Street
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Is Penn Street too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
Is there a non-pork option?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Can you do turkey for a Christmas party?
Roast turkey can be added for Christmas, alongside the pork.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Sunset in Penn Street in late December is 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.
- It starts with your date, venue and rough numbers.
- We check the venue and send a price.
- On the day we arrive early and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve hot when you’re ready.
- We clear away, even on a dark, wet evening.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Send final numbers in good time

For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
