Common questions in Inkpen

How far is Inkpen from London?

Roughly 60 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Do you come out to small places like Inkpen?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.

Do you need a car park?

A car park, yard or grounds normally works, given level ground and clearance.

What about family fun days?

Yes. Include visitors in your numbers and we’ll plan for everyone.

What’s included?

The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.

How big a hog will we need?

We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.

How long does the roast need?

Hours rather than minutes. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.

Space, access and the venue

Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:

  • A named contact for the day
  • A level spot in the car park, yard or grounds
  • Space away from buildings, vehicles and trees

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

A hog roast compared with other options

Compared with a barbecue run by staff, nobody from the team is stuck cooking. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

Why us?

  • An itemised quote
  • Crackling for everyone who wants it
  • Fresh carving at the serving station
  • Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated

See our prices page or our hog roast cost guide.

Working with your venue

For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.

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 normally easier.

You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

Step by step

Here’s how the day normally runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. For a staff lunch in Inkpen, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:25pm.

  1. Send us the site, date, numbers and break time.
  2. We confirm the site details and send a price.
  3. We set up early and roast through the morning.
  4. We serve within your break.
  5. We pack away and go.

Before we arrive

  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival

Getting a price

We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your staff event for a quote: fill in our quote form.
