A hog roast compared with other options

Organising for someone else?
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.
A closer look at the menu
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there is a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so nobody misses out.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Looking after everyone
Some crew won’t eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask the production office for dietary needs
- Post allergen details at base
- Halal isn’t offered
We get to base first thing, roasting through the morning.
Lamb or chicken gives the crew a choice.

Questions from Domewood
Do you come out to small places like Domewood?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How far is Domewood from London?
Roughly 25 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
What paperwork do you provide?
Tell us what the production needs, and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Do we need to provide electricity?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.
What about locations off the beaten track?
Normally, with good directions and access details. Let us know about the route.
What happens on the day
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. In December, daylight in Domewood ends around 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.
- You send the location, date and lunch call.
- We check access to base and quote.
- We agree where we set up and when we arrive.
- We roast through the morning and carve fast when lunch is called.
- Afterwards we clear our spot at base.
How to prepare
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
How to get a price
Send us the date, the address or RH10 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Send us your details through our quote form.
