FAQs for Rotherfield Peppard
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.
Is Rotherfield Peppard too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
What do you need from the organiser?
Just a pitch, access and any agreed paperwork. We bring the rest.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Your visitors will want somewhere dry to eat.
Step by step
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Late-May events in Rotherfield Peppard have light until about 8:55pm, while at midsummer it’s about 9:25pm. After dark, the stall needs lighting.
