Questions from Butler's Cross

We are gathering after a service at Church of St Peter and St Paul: can you cater?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.

How much will it be?

Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your party for a quote.

Does the roaster have to be outside?

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.

Do we need to wash up?

Yes, we clear up after service.

What do you need from us on the day?

Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Compared with a restaurant booking, you keep the party at home, with room for everyone. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups normally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.

Why book with us

  • Timed around your day
  • Carved to order by a chef
  • Staff to serve, so you do not have to
  • A choice of salads and potatoes

Step by step

It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we’ve agreed, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. For an evening party in Butler's Cross, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it’s around 7:05pm. Lights by the food keep the party going.

  1. Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
  2. We check the garden or drive and quote.
  3. We arrive early and get the roast going.
  4. At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
  5. We tidy up and pack away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

For planners, venues and organisers

Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

Should I cook it myself?

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
