- Vehicle access near the cooking area
- Flat ground outside the hall or house
- Somewhere indoors for people to eat
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing normally contains gluten.
Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Find out who would prefer chicken or a vegetarian option
- Plan separately if anyone needs halal food
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
Afterwards we pack up quietly.
Rotisserie chicken is a good alternative for those who do not eat pork.

Why us?
- Served at the time you choose
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

Questions from Sibford Ferris
We’re gathering after a service at Church of Holy Trinity: can you cater?
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 usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Is Sibford Ferris too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What if it rains?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We’ll bring the rest.
Do you provide china?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Do we need our own staff?
You do not need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
