Full catering or machine hire?

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

How we price a hog roast

Here’s what affects the price:

  • Plates or china
  • How many people are eating
  • Site access
  • Which meats and sides you choose

Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

Details that help

To get the best quote, tell us:

  • The address or postcode
  • Roughly how many people
  • Your date and serving time
  • Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo

A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Send us your details through our quote form.

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.

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep you both updated.

How it works

Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Light matters for a long roast: in Jealott's Hill, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm.

  1. First, tell us about your event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
  5. We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.

Getting ready for the day

  • Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Give us a contact number for the day

FAQs for Jealott's Hill

How far is Jealott's Hill from London?

About 28 miles from central London.

Is Jealott's Hill too small for a hog roast?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

What happens after service?

Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.

What do people get?

Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.

Do we need to provide electricity?

Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.

Can you work around our timings?

Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

How long does a hog roast take to cook?

Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:

  • Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
  • Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list

If timings shift, tell us: a cooked roast can be held for a while before carving.

We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.

Before you choose a spot

A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:

  • Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle
  • Cover for your guests in bad weather
  • Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
