Prices and what affects them
Here’s what affects the price:
- The journey to the venue
- Season and day of the week
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Which meats and sides you choose
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Getting an accurate quote
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Where the event is
- Roughly how many people
- Your date and serving time
- A photo of the cooking area
When you are weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. We spell it out in ours. To get yours, send us your details through our quote form.

What we serve, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which suits bigger events.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some crew will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.

Common questions in Blenheim
Is Blenheim too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is Blenheim close to London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Do you have documents for locations?
Requirements vary by production.
Where do you set up on a shoot?
Not much: a level area at base, agreed with locations.
What about locations off the beaten track?
Send the location and access notes and we will confirm.
What should we sort out beforehand?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We’ll bring the rest.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
The process
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. On a winter shoot near Blenheim, the light goes by about 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:25pm.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We check access to base and quote.
- The roast starts early.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about shelter for your crew
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
