Should I cook it myself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
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.
Organising for someone else?
If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Common questions in Gerrards Cross
Could you cook in Bulstrode Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first.
Is Gerrards Cross close to London?
About 21 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can visitors buy their own food?
Both models are possible. We will work it out together.
How long does the roast need?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.
Do you trade at village fêtes?
We love fêtes. Ask for details.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
How the day works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Late-May events in Gerrards Cross have light until about 8:55pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:25pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We carve and serve through the agreed hours.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
