A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, easy to eat standing up. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Full catering or machine hire?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork for the alternatives
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
Have a word with the neighbours first: roasting takes hours and the smell travels.
China crockery is available on request, at extra cost.
Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Planning a party in Chilworth
Chilworth is about 2 miles south-west of Chandler's Ford, in Southampton. From village halls to gardens and fields, parties around Chilworth suit a hog roast. We bring hog roasts to 40 places in Southampton.
Historic houses near Chilworth include South Stoneham House (2 miles south-east) and Southampton Tudor House and Garden (4 miles south). For most parties, a garden or hall is easier than a historic venue with strict catering rules. Guests arriving by train should know that Swaythling station, about 1.9 miles south-east, is the nearest station. Near the coast, within about 5 miles, gardens can catch the wind, so we plan a sheltered spot.
We bring hog roasts to parties all over the SO16 postcode area and the streets around it. Local streets include Heatherlands Road, Roman Road and Pinelands Road; a party on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. For parties just outside Chilworth, we cover Chilworth Old Village (1 mile north-west), Bassett (1 mile south), Lordswood (1 mile south-west), Highfield (2 miles south) and North Baddesley (2 miles north-west). Within a short drive, we also cover Southampton (3 miles south), Shirley (3 miles south), Regents Park (3 miles south-west), Townhill Park (3 miles south-east), Midanbury (3 miles south-east) and Thornhill (4 miles south-east).
A little further out are Eastleigh Museum (2.5 miles east) and Marlands Shopping Centre (3.6 miles south). The countryside around Chilworth includes Flexford Nature Reserve.
- Local schools include Saint George Catholic Voluntary Aided College Southampton (1.4 miles south-east)
Questions from Chilworth
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Denys: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
How far is Chilworth from London?
About 68 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
What about kids?
Plain pork rolls go down well with children, with chicken as an alternative.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you clear up?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it’s always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
