Common questions in Baker's Wood
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Which station is closest to Baker's Wood?
The closest is Denham Golf Club station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Is crackling included?
It is: the skin turns to crackling and everyone gets some.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t provide halal meat.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
Planners, venues and businesses
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

The process
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Around midsummer it stays light in Baker's Wood until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
Before we arrive
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

Is a hog roast right for your event?
Next to a barbecue, a hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone, instead of food coming off the grill in batches. See our guide to hog roast or barbecue. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Why us?
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
The menu, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so you only need to provide the space.
We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.
What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Any venue rules sorted in advance
- Parking near the spot
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
