Your questions about a hog roast in Waterend
Which station is closest to Waterend?
The closest is Saunderton station, roughly 2.2 miles away.
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 follow the site rules.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Can you cater in Waterend?
We do. Send us the address and we’ll confirm availability.
Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?
Many gardens are big enough, and a way to wheel the equipment through. A picture helps us check.
Do we need our own staff?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We do not provide halal meat.
Is it just pork?
Pork is the classic, and you can add spit-roast lamb or rotisserie chicken. Vegetarian and vegan options are available too.
The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: golden, crunchy and salty.
Spit-roast lamb
With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which suits bigger events.
A hog roast compared with other options
The obvious catch is that a hog roast is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too for anyone who does not eat it. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Why book our hog roast in Waterend
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Sides to make it a full meal

Planners, venues and businesses
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.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
Slow roasting needs attention, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for anyone who needs them.
