DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Common questions in The City
Do you cater at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
What’s the nearest station to The City?
The closest is Saunderton station, roughly 1.8 miles away.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
What’s included?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
The process
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. Late September evenings in The City lose the light at about 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We look at the cooking area and send a price.
- We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We clear up and go.
How to prepare
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so all you need is the space.
A second roast, lamb or chicken, gives people a choice.
About the food
