- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Holme Green
How far is Holme Green from London?
About 32 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
We are gathering after a service at St Sebastian'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 generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Can we cook it ourselves?
You can hire the machine. We’ll talk you through it when we quote.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
When do you start roasting?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.

What a hog roast costs
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Time on site
- How many people are eating
- Distance from us
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, we’ll need:
- A picture of the cooking area
- An estimate of numbers
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
