The process
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Autumn and winter afternoons in Sedrup get dark early: about 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so we plan lighting for later gatherings.
- Contact us when the date is set.
- We confirm the space.
- We cook on site.
- We serve quietly.
- We leave the venue tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Send final numbers in good time

Questions from Sedrup
Do you come out to small places like Sedrup?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you cater after a service at St Mary's Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Do you need anything from the family?
Just the venue, rough numbers and a contact for the day. We will handle the rest.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
Chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We don’t offer halal meat.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
What we serve, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there’s a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
