Your questions about a hog roast for your event in Denstroude
How far is Denstroude from London?
Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Could you cook in Foxes Cross Bottom?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
Do you trade at village fêtes?
We do. Tell us the date, pitch and how food will be paid for.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.
Before you choose a spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:
- A level pitch
- Details of what the event requires
- Room for a queue that does not block paths
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
