FAQs for Ludgershall

Do you come out to small places like Ludgershall?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

How far is Ludgershall from London?

Roughly 47 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?

Not for the cooking, but plan somewhere dry for guests.

Is mains power needed?

Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.

Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?

Plain pork rolls go down well with children, and chicken or a vegan sausage covers fussy eaters.

Is clearing up included?

We tidy the serving area, so there is very little washing up.

Do you bring plates?

We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.

Do you do DIY hog roast hire?

Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Think about children’s portions
  • Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option

Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.

China crockery is available on request, at extra cost.

Where the roaster can go in Ludgershall

The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:

  • Parking close to the house
  • A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
  • A wet-weather plan for guests

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Catered or do it yourself?

If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

A closer look at the menu

Roast pork

Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.

Stuffing and apple sauce

A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll.

Is a hog roast right for your party?

DIY or catered? DIY suits confident cooks and relaxed parties; catering suits bigger parties. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.

What you get with us

  • Served at the time you choose
  • Choices for people who do not eat pork

  4. When it is time to eat, the chef carves and we serve.
  5. We pack away and leave the garden tidy.

Getting ready for the day
