Is Holton too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.

Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your shoot for a quote.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.

Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
