At a field event near Hornton, power and water may be limited; the roaster runs on gas, so that is fine. You will know what’s included before booking: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

How it works
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Summer events in Hornton have daylight until about 9:30pm at midsummer and about 7:10pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Share the date, site and expected crowds.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We roast on the pitch.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We clear up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Gather dietary requirements early

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Hornton questions
Is Hornton too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is Hornton close to London?
About 70 miles from central London.
Do you do charity events?
Let us know your plans, and we will suggest options.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
Do you need power on site?
The roaster runs on gas, so no mains power is needed to cook. Power helps for lighting.
What if it rains?
Rain does not stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
How much room do you need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
