DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Other occasions in Frilford
For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

School fairs, for a school like Abingdon Preparatory School, are a natural fit for a hog roast.
For events in OX13, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and roughly how many visitors. Streets in the area include Oxford Road and Kingston Road, and an event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster. We also bring hog roasts to events in Frilford Heath (1 mile north), Marcham (1 mile east), Tubney (1 mile north), Fyfield (2 miles north-west) and Netherton (2 miles north-west).

How far is Frilford from London?
Roughly 56 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?

Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
Can visitors buy their own food?
That depends on the event. Let us know how you’d like it to work and we’ll discuss the options.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Where the roaster can go in Frilford
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Your trader requirements
- Room for a queue that doesn’t block paths
- A level pitch with firm ground
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
