A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a formal plated meal, a hog roast does not need a kitchen, which often makes it better value. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.

Questions from Frieth
How far is Frieth from London?
Roughly 33 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you come out to small places like Frieth?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can we choose catered or DIY?
We offer full catering and DIY machine hire. We will explain what’s included in each when we quote.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.

How we price a hog roast
Here’s what affects the price:
- Menu choices and extras
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Site access
- Season and day of the week
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Details that help
These are the details we need:
- The venue or postcode
- Rough numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Which meats and sides you’d like
Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: use our quote form.
Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
We will be with you for a good part of the day, because the roast starts hours before you eat.

What else we do in Frieth
DIY versus a catered hog roast
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 hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Events we cater in Frieth
For big gatherings in Frieth, a hog roast is hard to beat: one roast feeds a crowd, and the carving gives people something to watch.
We are booked for all kinds of occasions in Frieth and nearby. Some of the most common are:
- Village fêtes and school fairs
- Wakes and memorial gatherings
- Parties at home
- Corporate events
Churches such as Church of St John the Evangelist rarely have room for a roaster, but a hall or home close by normally does.
Questions to ask before you book
- What the price includes, item by item
- Who carves and who serves
- Allergen information for every dish
- What the cooking area needs: space, cover and access
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. Around midsummer it stays light in Frieth until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, 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.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Think about shelter for your guests
