Prices and what affects them
We work out each quote from:
- How many people are eating
- How long the roast and service take
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Whether you want china
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Details that help
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- The venue or postcode
- What the outdoor space is like
- An estimate of numbers
- Any venue rules
For a quote, send us a few details: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Use our quote form.
Before you choose a spot

- Space inside for guests
- Space away from the building and any trees
- A level spot outdoors for the roaster
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Step by step
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready.

- We confirm the space.
- We set up and roast on the day.
- We serve quietly.
- We leave the venue tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival

Questions from Moulsoe
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Do you come out to small places like Moulsoe?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you do gluten-free?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. You’ll get allergen details for everything.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do you cover Moulsoe?
We do. Send us the address and we will check the date.
Can you do something else?
Chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Halal isn’t available.
