Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Ask about dietary needs when people RSVP
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Count who does not eat pork
- Share the allergen information in advance
We set up while it is still light, and cook into the evening.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Questions from Three Ashes
Which station is closest to Three Ashes?
Bramley (Hants) station, about 1.5 miles south-east of the centre.
How far is Three Ashes from London?
About 44 miles from central London, and well within our area.
What’s included?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.

How early should we book for Christmas?
December weekends go first. Send your date early.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
The menu, dish by dish
Roast turkey
At Christmas, add roast turkey alongside the hog, carved at the serving station for a festive feel.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan guests can have a vegan burger or sausage, so everyone has something hot.
Space, access and the venue
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A lit route to the food

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
