Working with your venue
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Full catering or machine hire?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
Next to a plated lunch, a hog roast is relaxed and normally better value. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

What comes off the roaster

Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

FAQs for Chilton Foliat
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Is Chilton Foliat too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
How do we book for a business?
Contact us with your details, and the quote will include the terms.
Do you need power or water?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
