Slow-roasted pork in Beacon Hill
Catered or do it yourself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

What we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: golden, crunchy and salty, straight off the hog.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Beacon Hill: your questions answered
Do you cater at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you trade at school fairs around Beacon Hill?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Can a hog roast raise money?
Tell us about the event and how you’d like to raise money, and we will suggest a way to make it work.
What’s included?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Is mains power needed?
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 roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
