Common questions in Saunderton Lee

Is Saunderton Lee close to London?

Roughly 34 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

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.

When do you start roasting?

It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.

What is hog roast hire?

We bring the roaster, roast the hog on site for hours, then our chef carves it and our staff serve, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling.

What if things run late?

Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.

What do people get?

Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.

Where does the hog roast go?

Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A picture helps.

What’s the price?

Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we will quote.

Who books hog roast hire in Saunderton Lee?

Slow roasting can’t be faked: tender pork and proper crackling, carved fresh for every roll.

How to compare hog roast caterers

What a hog roast costs

Things that change the price:

  • Plates or china
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The number of people
  • The serving time and how long we’re on site

Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

Getting an accurate quote

Here’s what we’ll ask:

  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • Where the event is
  • An estimate of numbers
  • Your date and serving time

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Use our quote form.

A closer look at the menu

Rotisserie chicken

Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children usually like it too.

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

For vegans, there is a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.

Step by step

We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell generally brings people over long before we carve. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Saunderton Lee, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm.

  1. First, tell us about your event.
  2. We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
  4. We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
  5. We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
  • Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Looking after everyone

Some guests won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • Put the menu on the invitation
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed

Slow roasting needs attention, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.

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

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. Sort that first.

For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Planning the cooking spot

The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:

  • The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
