About the food
Rotisserie chicken
For crew who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
How it works
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. Because the roast starts early, and in December Felcourt is dark by about 3:55pm.
- You send the location, date and lunch call.
- You get a check on access and a quote.
- We agree where we set up and when we arrive.
- When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

How we price a hog roast for the crew
We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- The journey to the venue
- Crockery choices
- The date and time of year
- Which meats and sides you choose
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
What to tell us
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Where the event is
- Your menu choices
- Your date and serving time
- Anything the venue has asked for
When you’re 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.
Felcourt: your questions answered
Can you do a hog roast in Centenary Fields?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is Felcourt too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your shoot for a quote.
Who serves?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
What does the production need from you?
Send us your requirements, and we will confirm what we can provide.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
