Ruscote questions
Is Ruscote close to London?
Roughly 67 miles from the centre of London.
Could you cook in People's Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Can you feed staff and families?
Yes, a hog roast suits open days, with alternatives for everyone.
Do you cover Ruscote?
Yes, Ruscote is in our area. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Can you do a hog roast for a client event?
Yes. Add china, sides and a second roast for a more formal feel.
What happens on the day
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. Open days in Ruscote typically finish in daylight, but in December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so late events need lighting.
