Questions from Singleton
Do you come out to small places like Singleton?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is Singleton close to London?
Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
What if things run late?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll adjust.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Can you sell directly to visitors?
That depends on the event. Let us know how you’d like it to work and we will talk it through.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.
Prices and what affects them
We work out each quote from:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The number of people
Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- Allergies we should know about
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Your menu choices
- The date and time of the event
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so you can compare caterers fairly. Use our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

How the day works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell usually brings people over long before we carve. Summer events in Singleton have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Think about shelter for your visitors
