Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Count crew needing an alternative
- Label the alternatives clearly
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
We get to base first thing, roasting through the morning.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Dancers Hill: your questions answered
What if our house in Dancers Hill has no side access?
Frequently, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Could you cook in King George's Fields (Monken Hadley)?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
How do we prepare?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
Do you work to set times?
We plan the roast to your lunch call, and we will adjust where we can.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.

For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.

Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Site access
- Plates or china
- Numbers
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:

The process
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. At midsummer, daylight in Dancers Hill lasts until about 9:20pm, so a wrap party can run into the evening.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Some productions combine a hog roast with their usual caterer, for a wrap or a milestone. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
