Common questions in Lower Denford
Do you come out to small places like Lower Denford?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What’s the nearest station to Lower Denford?
Hungerford station, about 0.7 miles west of the centre.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
What if things run late?
We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not something we offer.
Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
If it is for clients, choose china, sides and lamb or chicken to make it more formal. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

What a hog roast costs
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every staff event is different. The main factors are:
- Menu choices and extras
- The journey to the venue
- Numbers
- The date and time of year
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What we need to know
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Where the event is
- A photo of the cooking area
- Any dietary needs or allergies
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: use our quote form.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
