Should I cook it myself?
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 typically easier.
Questions from Charlbury
What’s the nearest station to Charlbury?
The closest is Charlbury station, roughly 0.5 miles away.
We are gathering after a service at St Mary's Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Can you do a hog roast in our back garden?
Often, yes, if there’s a level spot away from the house and trees, given access for the equipment. A picture helps.
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.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

How we price a hog roast for your party
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Whether you want china
- Numbers
- How long the roast and service take
- Access to the cooking area
The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Getting an accurate quote
To check the date and the space, we’ll need:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- The address or postcode
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
Every party is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your party for a quote: use our quote form.
The process
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. At midsummer, it’s light in Charlbury until about 9:30pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:10pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Tell us about your party: date, address and numbers.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
Ask for a quote

Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
Make sure the gate or side passage is open when we arrive, so we can bring everything through.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.
For event organisers in Charlbury
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
A hog roast or other catering?
Instead of booking a restaurant, you keep the party at home, with room for everyone. For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
