Full catering or machine hire?
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- The number of people
- Site access
- Season and day of the week
- Crockery choices
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Details that help
These are the details we need:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- The address or postcode
- A photo of the cooking area

The menu, dish by dish

What else we do in Lower Green
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to sandwich platters, hot carved pork feels much more special. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why book with us
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Timed around your day
- Carved by our chef in front of your staff
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

How it works

For a staff lunch in Lower Green, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.

- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve to your timings.
- We pack away and leave the site as we found it.
