Upper North Dean: your questions answered
Is Upper North Dean too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you cater at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Can we have roast turkey?
We can: turkey and pork together suit most Christmas parties.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
Do you cover Upper North Dean?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Upper North Dean and Buckinghamshire. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.

- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate.
The process
Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. With sunset at about 3:55pm in December, most Christmas parties in Upper North Dean are after dark. We bring lighting for the cooking area; tell us about lighting on the way to it.
- Book early for December.
- You get a quote with the menu.
- We arrive while it is light and set up under cover.
- We serve pork, turkey and sides.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
