Questions from Hyde
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the New Forest National Park?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
We are gathering after a service at Church of the Holy Ascension: 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.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
What do people get?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.

Step by step
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your guests, with crackling for everyone who wants it. In Hyde, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so an early-evening carve is typically in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 4:05pm, need lights by the roaster.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We set up hours ahead.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Planning help
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then clear up the serving area.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
