Which station is closest to Piddington?

When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
You will not need to worry about the food on the day. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, then clear up.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast.
