Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Find out who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
Name someone to meet us, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.

A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast does not need a kitchen, which normally keeps the cost down. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Why book our hog roast in Loxwood
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Serving and clearing done for you

Working with your venue
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
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.
What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
The process
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. By late September, sunset in Loxwood is around 7:05pm, and in December it is nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

FAQs for Loxwood
How far is Loxwood from London?
About 34 miles from central London.
We are gathering after a service at St John the Baptist: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Is crackling included?
Of course: the skin turns to crackling and everyone gets some.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Can you do gluten-free?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we will bring them. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
Do you provide china?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
How much room do you need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A picture helps.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

Catered or do it yourself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
