Baulking questions
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Nicholas: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Is Baulking close to London?
About 63 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you do DIY hire for parties?
You can hire the machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works.
Should we warn the neighbours?
A friendly word helps: roasting takes hours. Some hosts invite them over for a roll.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Yes, and tell us how many children are coming, so we get the amounts right.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
How do we prepare?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We’ll bring the rest.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
What affects the price in Baulking
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Plates or china
- Numbers
- Distance from us
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Your menu choices
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Dietary requirements
It’s easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
