About the food

A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll.
Hog roast hire for your event in South Heath
Hiring a hog roast means a whole hog cooked slowly on site, over several hours, outdoors under cover. When it is ready, our chef carves it and our staff serve it in soft rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and a piece of crackling. For wakes and wedding breakfasts and evening food, we will put together a menu of crackling, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls.
In a rural place like South Heath, roast pork in a field is hard to beat. Let us know about access and ground conditions. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.

South Heath: your questions answered
We are gathering after a service at St Mary's: can you cater?
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 normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Is South Heath too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat.
Do you cover South Heath?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, South Heath and the rest of Buckinghamshire included. Send us the address for a quote.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Is crackling included?
Yes, the crackling is shared out as we carve.
What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
We’ll be with you for a good part of the day, because the roast starts hours before you eat.
China crockery is available on request, at an extra cost.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with food vans, a hog roast serves a lot of people from one roast. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What you get with us
