Questions from Hanover
Could you cook in Queen's Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you roast near the sea around Hanover?
Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
What about a wrap party?
We do, with lamb or chicken if you like.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
What paperwork do you provide?
Tell us what the production needs, and we will confirm what we can provide.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Do you work to set times?
We work to your schedule.
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to deliveries, a hog roast at base is ready on the call. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

About the food
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and it suits fussy eaters.
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: golden, crunchy and salty, straight off the hog.
How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. Summer shoots near Hanover have light until about 9:15pm, which suits an evening wrap at base.
- Send us the location, dates and lunch time.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We serve when lunch is called.
- We clear our spot.
How to prepare
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
