Your questions about a hog roast for your event in Bovingdon Green
Is Bovingdon Green too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is Bovingdon Green close to London?
Roughly 31 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we’ll check.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Can you sell directly to visitors?
Both models are possible. We’ll agree what suits yours.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.

The menu, dish by dish

Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.
Crackling

DIY versus a catered hog roast
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
