Your questions about a hog roast for your event in Clanville
What’s the nearest station to Clanville?
Andover station, about 3.2 miles south-east of the centre.
How far is Clanville from London?
Roughly 65 miles from the centre of London.
How do we prepare?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
Is it pay as you go?
Both models are possible. We will work it out together.
Do you do fêtes?
A hog roast suits a fête perfectly. Ask for details.
What do you need from the organiser?
The roaster runs on gas, so no mains power is needed to cook. Power helps for lighting.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it’s always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Planning the cooking spot
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:
- The landowner’s or council’s agreement
- Clearance from other stalls and tents
- Room for a queue that doesn’t block paths
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
Popular choices
- Rotisserie chicken
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Hog roast rolls
- Coleslaw
The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, so it stays hot and juicy.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
How the day works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. Summer events in Clanville have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:10pm by late September, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Tell us about the event.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We leave the pitch clean.
How to prepare
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Gather dietary requirements early
How to get a price
