Questions from North Boarhunt
Is North Boarhunt too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is North Boarhunt from London?
Roughly 62 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
What does the production need from you?
Send us your requirements, and we will confirm what we can provide.
Can you set up at the unit base?
A level outdoor spot clear of trucks and kit, agreed with locations.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, and handy for anyone who does not eat pork.
Prices and what affects them
