For event organisers in Banbury
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Before you choose a spot
Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:
- Access agreed with locations
- Away from vehicles and equipment
- A named contact at base
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

- Served at the time you choose
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Carved by our chef in front of your crew

Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Label the alternatives clearly
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Tell us who doesn’t eat pork
We arrive early and set up at base, roasting through the morning.
Wrap parties can run into the evening, tell us about lighting at base.
Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Banbury
How far is Banbury from London?
Roughly 66 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Could you cook in People's Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What about locations off the beaten track?
We can, given access details. Tell us about tracks and ground.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you’re unsure.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
What does the production need from you?
Every production is different; share your list and we will respond.
What’s included?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
