Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Show allergens at the stall
- Balance the food line-up
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Remember stuffing typically contains gluten
If the ground is soft, we will need a firm route on and off, particularly in wet weather.
The vegan option is popular at festivals.
How our hog roast for events works in Wavendon
Shows and festivals last all day, and a hog roast can serve through the day. On the menu are a vegan burger or sausage, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce, and typical bookings are for charity days and food and music festivals.
Near Wavendon, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hog roast goes down well. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

For event organisers in Wavendon
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Common questions in Wavendon
What’s the nearest station to Wavendon?
Woburn Sands station, about 0.9 miles south-east of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Wavendon?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Do you do charity events?
Let us know your plans, and we will suggest a way to make it work.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- Space for people to queue
- Permission for cooking on the site
- Any paperwork the organisers need
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
