Hog roast for events for Drayton Beauchamp
For planners, venues and organisers
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Hog roast for events in Drayton Beauchamp, carved to order
Every event handles food differently: a catered package paid by the organiser, or a stall selling to visitors. Let us know what you have in mind. Typical bookings include community events and fun runs and sports events, serving halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken.
At a field event near Drayton Beauchamp, power and water may be limited; the roaster runs on gas, so that is fine. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish.

Common questions in Drayton Beauchamp
How far is Drayton Beauchamp from London?
Roughly 33 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you trade at school fairs around Drayton Beauchamp?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
What will our event need from you?
Tell us what your event requires, and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Do you trade at village fêtes?
A hog roast suits a fête perfectly. Ask for details.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your visitors will want somewhere dry to eat.
Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
How we price a hog roast for your event
Your quote depends on:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Distance from us
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Whether you want china
UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
What we need to know
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- What the outdoor space is like
- The date and time of the event
- Rough numbers
- Where the event is
It’s easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
How it works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. In late May, sunset in Drayton Beauchamp is about 8:55pm, while at midsummer it is about 9:25pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We tidy the pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Name a contact for the day

Roast pork
