For planners, venues and organisers

If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

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

Diets, allergies and alternatives

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Collect dietary needs when guests reply
  • Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
  • Let us know roughly how many children

Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then clear up the serving area.

A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.

Before you choose a spot

Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:

  • Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
  • A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
  • Space for our vehicle near the drive

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

Prices and what affects them

A few things make the biggest difference to the price:

  • Whether you want china
  • Menu choices and extras
  • Travel to Church Norton
  • The number of people

The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

What we need to know

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:

  • Your menu choices
  • Allergies we should know about
  • Where the event is
  • Any venue rules

We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or PO20 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Fill in our quote form.

The process

A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. A summer party in Church Norton stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

  1. Show us the garden or drive.
  2. We check the space and quote.
  3. We cook for hours on site.
  4. Our staff serve rolls and sides.
  5. We clear up so you do not have to.

Before we arrive

  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
