What else we do in Sherington
Why choose a hog roast in Sherington?
Compared with a traditional sit-down Christmas lunch, a hog roast with turkey is relaxed and easier to serve. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why book with us
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Our staff serve and clear
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Add dietary questions to the invite
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
- Send the allergen list round before the party
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
We pack up whatever the weather.
Festive lights around the serving area look great.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A lit route to the food
- A safe distance from anything that could catch the heat
- 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.
Popular choices

What a hog roast costs
Each price is built from:
- How many people are eating
- The journey to the venue
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Whether you want china
The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
Getting an accurate quote
When you contact us, it helps to include:
- The date and time of the event
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- A picture of the cooking area
- Rough numbers
The quickest way to get a price is to 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. Send us your details through our quote form.
Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
FAQs for Sherington
How far is Sherington from London?
Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come out to small places like Sherington?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Is crockery included?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What happens on the day
Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. In December, it is dark in Sherington by about 3:50pm, 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.
- Tell us when and where the party is.
- We check the outdoor cooking spot and quote.
- The roast starts in the afternoon.
- We carve and serve hot on cue.
- We clear away whatever the weather.
Preparing for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
