For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

FAQs for Dry Sandford
What’s the nearest station to Dry Sandford?
The closest is Radley station, roughly 3.8 miles away.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Helen?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
What about the neighbours?
A friendly word helps: roasting takes hours. They may want a roll.
Do you cover Dry Sandford?
Yes, Dry Sandford is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.
Do you bring a gazebo?
The roaster has its own cover; guests will want somewhere dry to eat if it rains.
What about kids?
Plain pork rolls go down well with children, with chicken as an alternative.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
What a hog roast costs
Things that change the price:
- Whether you want china

Details that help
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Dietary requirements
- Rough numbers
Every party is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your party for a quote: fill in our quote form.
The process
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power. For an evening party in Dry Sandford, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it’s around 7:10pm. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.
- Tell us about your party: date, address and numbers.
- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Preparing for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
Ask for a quote
