Your questions about a hog roast for your team in Horton
Could you cook in Arthur Jacob Nature Reserve?
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.
Do you come out to small places like Horton?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.

Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.

For planners, venues and organisers
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep you both updated.
Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
How it works
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Daytime open days in Horton are rarely affected by light, though in winter it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- We check access and the cooking area, then quote.
- We arrive in good time and start the roast under cover.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve to your timings.
- We tidy up and leave the site clean.
Preparing for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a barbecue run by staff, everyone gets to join in. The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
