For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
What happens on the day
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Evening staff events in Church Hanborough need light after sunset: about 9:30pm in June, 7:10pm in late September and 3:55pm in December.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Other occasions in Church Hanborough

What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The date and time of year

Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
