Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Crockery choices
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Distance from us

Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

Here’s what we’ll ask:
- Where the event is
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- A photo of the cooking area
- Roughly how many people
It is easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
Planners, venues and businesses
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Graffham: your questions answered
How far is Graffham from London?
About 46 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Is Graffham too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your shoot for a quote.
Can you cater for vegetarians?

What if it rains?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do we need to provide electricity?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
What does the production need from you?
Send us your requirements, and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
How the day works
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your crew, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. On a winter shoot near Graffham, the light goes by about 4:00pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We pack away straight after.
Preparing for the day
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Think about shelter for your crew
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which works well for larger groups.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
