FAQs for Foreland Fields
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
We are gathering after a service at Saint Luke: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.
Do you provide china?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Is crackling included?
Yes, the crackling is shared out as we carve.
Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?
Many gardens are big enough, as long as we can get the equipment in. Send us a photo.
For planners, venues and organisers
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
How it works
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Late September evenings in Foreland Fields lose the light at about 7:10pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 4:00pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.
- You share the when, where and how many.

- We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We pack away and leave you to it.
Getting ready for the day

Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
Expect us to be on site for much of the day, because the roast starts hours before you eat.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal.
