Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to street-food vans, a hog roast feeds plenty of people quickly from one roast. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why us?
- Carved by our chef in front of your staff
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Our staff serve and clear

Catered or do it yourself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
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 a hog roast costs
We work out each quote from:
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Distance from us
- Whether you want china
For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Friar's Hill questions
Is Friar's Hill close to London?
About 53 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you do a hog roast in Speckled Wood?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What paperwork do you provide for our site?
Requirements vary: send us the checklist and we’ll reply.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
What’s included?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Can a company book?
Send your requirements, and we will set out the terms with your quote.
Can it be more formal?
With china and sides, it works well for clients.
The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some staff will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate.
Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
On the day, we arrive early and set up where agreed, then roast through the morning.
If it is a themed open day, tell us and we will fit in.
