What else we do in Bledlow Ridge
About the food

Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing generally contains gluten.
Full catering or machine hire?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
How it works
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Bledlow Ridge, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- We start with a few details about your event.
