Full catering or machine hire?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

Questions from Wrecclesham
How far is Wrecclesham from London?
About 38 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
What’s the nearest station to Wrecclesham?
The closest is Farnham station, roughly 1.5 miles away.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Do we need our own staff?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Can you work to our lunch time?
Yes. We time the roast to be ready and serve quickly. Rolls are the fastest way to serve.
Can you do gluten-free?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. You will get allergen details for everything.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
When do you start roasting?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Looking after everyone
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the site as we found it.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
