Hatchet Green questions
Do you come out to small places like Hatchet Green?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Can you send documents for facilities?
Each site is different: pass on your list and we will respond.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What should we sort out beforehand?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
Can you work to our lunch time?
We plan the roast around your break. Rolls are the fastest way to serve.
Can you do a hog roast for a client event?
It can be dressed up, depending on the crockery and menu.
What space does the roaster need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will confirm the space with your quote.
Planning the cooking spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- Someone to meet us at reception
- Sign-off for outside caterers
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, and it is carved the same way, often with mint sauce.
Organising for someone else?
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.

Allergies and dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed

Should I cook it myself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
