What’s the nearest station to Hyde Heath?
Amersham station, about 2.2 miles south-east of the centre.
Can you come to a school fair in Hyde Heath?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Is crockery included?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
What do you need from the organiser?
The roaster runs on gas, so no mains power is needed to cook. A supply is useful for lights.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we will quote.
Can a hog roast raise money?
Tell us about the event and how you’d like to raise money, and we’ll suggest a way to make it work.
How our hog roast for events works in Hyde Heath
Organisers need traders who turn up and serve well. We bring everything, roast on the pitch and leave it clean. On the menu are apple sauce, crackling and rotisserie chicken, and we are regularly asked to cater church and village fêtes and food and music festivals.
At a field event near Hyde Heath, power and water may be limited; the roaster runs on gas, so that’s fine. You will know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: crisp, golden and full of flavour.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
Organising for someone else?
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Before you choose a spot
It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:
- A level pitch
- Clearance from other stalls and tents
- Any paperwork the organisers need
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
On the menu in Hyde Heath
- Coleslaw
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Full catering or machine hire?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
