A closer look at the menu

Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, perfect for eating on the move. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Crockery choices
- The journey to the venue
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help
When you contact us, it helps to include:

Your questions about a hog roast for your event in Newington
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Is Newington close to London?
Roughly 45 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your visitors will want somewhere dry to eat.
Step by step
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat. Late-September events in Newington lose the light at about 7:10pm, so evening trading needs lights.
- Tell us about the event.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Give us a contact on the day.
Chicken widens the choice.
Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
