Common questions in Bloxham
Which station is closest to Bloxham?
The closest is Banbury station, roughly 3.5 miles away.
How far is Bloxham from London?
About 65 miles from central London.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
How long does the roast need?
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 space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do you cater open days with families?
Yes. Give us total numbers and we will cater for all.
Should I cook it myself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Add a dietary question to the sign-up
- Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
Afterwards we tidy up, leaving the site as we found it.
If it is a themed open day, tell us.
