Stubbles: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Stubbles?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.
What if it rains?
Rain does not stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Can you come to our fête?
We love fêtes. Ask for details.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
If you are a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
How we price a hog roast for your event
Things that change the price:
- The journey to the venue
- Whether you want china
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- How long the roast and service take
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What to tell us
Here’s what we will ask:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Roughly how many people
- Allergies we should know about
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Send us your details through our quote form.
A hog roast or other catering?
For big events, ask us about the expected crowds early. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Signpost the stall clearly
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
At the end, we pack down and take our waste.
A vegan burger or sausage covers vegan visitors.
