Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
Everything for serving comes with us, so you only need to provide the space.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal.
Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every event is different. What matters most:
- Crockery choices
- Season and day of the week
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- The number of people
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Rough numbers
- What the outdoor space is like
- Your date and serving time
- Anything the venue has asked for
Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, then confirm closer to the date. Use our quote form.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a formal plated meal, a hog roast needs no kitchen and fewer staff, which often makes it better value. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Why book with us
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Planned to your running order

Organising for someone else?
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

FAQs for Princes Risborough
Can you cater after a service at St Teresa's Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Is mains power needed?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?
Often, yes, if there’s a level, open spot away from the house and trees, as long as we can get the equipment in. A photo helps us check.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
Full catering or machine hire?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, 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 nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing generally contains gluten.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Where the roaster can go in Princes Risborough

- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
