What comes off the roaster

Spit-roast lamb

Farnborough: your questions answered

Do you come out to small places like Farnborough?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.

Do we need our own staff?

You do not need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.

What do people get?

Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.

Is crockery included?

We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.

How do we book for a business?

How do you work out quantities?

We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.

Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?

The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.

How the day works

We work to your timings. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. Lunchtime bookings in Farnborough are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.

We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
We check site access and send a price.
On the day we set up and roast through the morning.
We serve quickly within your break.
We pack away and leave the site as we found it.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

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.

What affects the price in Farnborough

Things that change the price:

Season and day of the week
Numbers
Which meats and sides you choose
How long the roast and service take

Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

What to tell us

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

Rules from the venue or landowner
Any dietary needs or allergies
Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
The date and time of the event

The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of the cooking area helps. Use our quote form.
