How our party hog roast works in Brenzett
If you’d rather cook yourself, DIY machine hire is an option. Most hosts prefer us to do it, and spend time with their guests. For christenings and engagement parties, we can cook a vegan burger or sausage, rotisserie chicken and jacket potatoes for your guests.
In a small place like Brenzett, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll plan the route. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Brenzett questions
Can you cater after a service at St Eanswith's Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do you come out to small places like Brenzett?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you bring plates?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
Is clearing up included?
We bring plates and clear up after service.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We do not provide halal meat.

At midsummer, it is light in Brenzett until about 9:15pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:00pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

Organising for someone else?
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.
Should I cook it myself?

- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
