A hog roast near Walton
The process
Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we have agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. Because the roast starts early, and in December Walton is dark by about 3:55pm, so we may set up under lights.
- You send the location, date and lunch call.
- We check the route and send a price.
- We agree where we set up and when we arrive.
- We carve to order the moment lunch is called.
- Afterwards we clear our spot at base.
How to prepare
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

For planners, venues and organisers
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

What affects the price in Walton
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Access to the cooking area
- The journey to the venue
- How many people are eating
- Crockery choices
A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
