Common questions in Uffington
Do you cater at venues in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Is Uffington too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Is lighting needed?
After dark, the serving area and the path to it need lighting. Let us know what lighting the venue has.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
Can the food be served indoors?
Serving inside is typically fine with the venue’s agreement.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is normally fine if the venue is happy.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
What the cooking area needs
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:
- Space away from buildings, marquees and trees

Should I cook it myself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
