Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Looking after everyone
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
Name someone to meet us, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal.
Prices and what affects them
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- How long the roast and service take

South Ascot: your questions answered
How far is South Ascot from London?
About 26 miles from central London.
Could you cook in Silwood Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.
Do we need a big space?
Frequently, yes, if there is a level, open spot away from the house and trees, as long as we can get the equipment in. A picture helps us check.
Is all of Windsor and Maidenhead covered?
All of Windsor and Maidenhead is in our area. Send us the address and we’ll quote.
What meats can we have?
The hog is the centrepiece, but lamb and chicken can be added.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so tell us your best estimate. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
The process
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. Light matters for a long roast: around South Ascot, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
- We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
- We carve and serve when you are ready to eat.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Send final numbers in good time
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
