What we serve, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
Working with your venue
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Ratley: your questions answered
Is Ratley too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Who serves?
You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Can you cater in Ratley?
We do. Send us the address and we will check the date.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
How do we book for a business?
Send your requirements, and the quote will include the terms.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Can you set up in our car park?
A car park, yard or grounds typically works, given level ground and clearance.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Find out how many don’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
We follow your site’s sign-in and safety rules.
China crockery is available for client events.

A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a formal plated lunch, a hog roast is relaxed and normally better value. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Should I cook it myself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
