Organising for someone else?

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a full location catering unit, a hog roast is simpler and suits smaller shoots and one-off days. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
What you get with us
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to

The process
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. In December, daylight in Forty Green ends around 3:55pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. Summer shoots have daylight until about 9:25pm.
- We start with the location, call times and numbers.
- We check the route and send a price.
- Our position and arrival are agreed in advance.
- When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.
How to prepare
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
