Your questions about a hog roast for your event in Kingston Stert
Do you come out to small places like Kingston Stert?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you cater at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Do you trade at village fêtes?
A hog roast suits a fête perfectly. Contact us.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
What if things run late?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
Is electricity needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so no mains power is needed to cook. Power helps for lighting.
What happens in bad weather?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Step by step

Compared with cold food stalls, hot food is popular in any season. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Why us?
- Timed around your day
