Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Coxford questions
How far is Coxford from London?
Roughly 70 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you roast near the sea around Coxford?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Is electricity needed?
Cooking is gas-fired. Power helps for lighting.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- A level pitch
- A vehicle route onto the pitch
- Details of what the event requires
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
