- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
Have a word with the neighbours first: roasting takes hours and the smell travels, and they may ask for a roll.

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Leckhampstead
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St James: 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 usually elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Is Leckhampstead too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is crockery included?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?
The roaster has its own cover; plan shelter for guests in bad weather.
Is our garden suitable?
Often, yes, if there is a level spot away from the house and trees, given access for the equipment. A picture helps.
How long does the roast need?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
Can we cook it ourselves?
If you’re happy to roast and carve, yes. Most people prefer us to cook so they can enjoy the party.

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing typically contains gluten.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A spot well away from the house
- Neighbours warned about the smell
- A wet-weather plan for guests
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
