- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit

The process
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. By late September, sunset near Woughton on the Green is about 7:05pm, so plan lights for evening service.
- The production office sends us the location, dates, numbers and lunch time.
- We check the route and send a price.
- We agree our position at base with the location manager.
- When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
- We pack up and leave the base tidy.

For planners, venues and organisers
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Woughton on the Green questions

Roughly 45 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Is Woughton on the Green too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Can you cater our wrap?
Yes, a hog roast suits a relaxed wrap party.
What paperwork do you provide?
