Full catering or machine hire?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is 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.
Grendon Underwood questions
How far is Grendon Underwood from London?
Roughly 47 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is Grendon Underwood too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
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.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
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 happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do you need a car park?
Anywhere suitable and approved, as long as it’s outdoors.
What paperwork do you provide for our site?
Tell us what your site asks for, and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Ask staff about dietary needs in advance
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
On the day, we arrive early and set up where agreed, then roast through the morning.
Salads and coleslaw make it a fuller lunch.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
