- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We clear up and go.

For event organisers in Dinton
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

What we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- Space away from marquees, stalls and trees
- Room for a queue that doesn’t block paths
- The landowner’s or council’s agreement
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

Should I cook it myself?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
What a hog roast costs
We work out each quote from:
- The date and time of year
- How long the roast and service take
- Distance from us
- Menu choices and extras
Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.

Dinton: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Dinton?
Haddenham & Thame Parkway station, about 2.4 miles south-west of the centre.
Is Dinton too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do you have documents for event organisers?
Send us your trader requirements, and we will confirm what we can provide.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A picture helps.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
