FAQs for Biddenden Green
Do you cater at venues in the Kent 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 Biddenden Green too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
When should we book?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
Where on site can you cook?
A car park, yard or grounds generally works, given level ground and clearance.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with individual food vans, carving serves the whole team fast. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
Why us?
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- A choice of salads and potatoes

Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Add a dietary question to the sign-up
We follow your site’s sign-in and safety rules.
Salads and coleslaw make it a fuller lunch.
Organising for someone else?
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Full catering or machine hire?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
