Slow-roasted pork in Aston Clinton
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with sandwiches from a shop, hot food makes a difference on a long day. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
What you get with us
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Carved by our chef in front of your crew
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

Working with your venue
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
The menu, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and our chef carves it to order.
What a hog roast costs
Each price is built from:
- The date and time of year
- Menu choices and extras
- How many people are eating
- Access to the cooking area
The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
What we need to know
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The date and time of the event
- Rough numbers
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo

The process
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. By late September, sunset near Aston Clinton is about 7:05pm, so plan lights for evening service.
- Tell us the base location.
- We confirm where we set up.
- We cook at base.
- We serve rolls or plates quickly.
- We leave base tidy.
How to prepare
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
