A hog roast near Bishopstone
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a buffet, a hog roast is hot, freshly carved and feels like an occasion. A buffet can sit out all afternoon. For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Why us?
- Our staff serve and clear
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- A clear quote with everything listed

Planners, venues and businesses
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
About the food
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children normally like it too.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.

How we price a hog roast
Each price is built from:
- Numbers
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Time on site
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- Rough numbers
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Your date and serving time
- Your menu choices
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: use our quote form.
What happens on the day
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. In Bishopstone, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- First, tell us about your event.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
Getting ready for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Give us a contact number for the day
How to get a price

Your questions about a hog roast in Bishopstone
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you come out to small places like Bishopstone?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we will quote.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
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
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
The roaster needs looking after for hours, which is our job, not yours. You can relax and enjoy the day.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.
