A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.

Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Turville Heath
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Do you come out to small places like Turville Heath?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How much will it be?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your shoot for a quote.
When should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Can you get to rural locations?
Normally, with good directions and access details. Tell us about tracks and ground.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Can you serve at our lunch call?
We plan the roast to your lunch call, and we’ll adjust where we can.

Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Time on site
- Distance from us
- How many people are eating
For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

To get the best quote, send us:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Where the event is
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
