Your questions about a hog roast for your team in Sheffield Bottom
Which station is closest to Sheffield Bottom?
Theale station, about 0.7 miles north-west of the centre.
Is Sheffield Bottom too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can it be more formal?
Yes. Add china, sides and a second roast for a more formal feel.
How do we book for a business?
Contact us with your details, and we’ll set out the terms with your quote.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
What about staff who don’t eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Planners, venues and businesses
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.
Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
We serve on time, keeping the queue moving.
Ask about china for a more formal lunch.

What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, and served hot.
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Should I cook it myself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Step by step
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. For a staff lunch in Sheffield Bottom, 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 9:25pm.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- You get a check on the date and the site, and a quote.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve to your timings.
- Afterwards we clear up and go.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
