Working with your venue
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll, just as they should.
FAQs for Monks Risborough
Is Monks Risborough too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Dunstan: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What if things run late?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
Do we need cover?
The roaster has its own cover; guests will want somewhere dry to eat if it rains.
Is our garden suitable?
Most gardens can work, given access for the equipment. A photo helps.
Can you cater in Monks Risborough?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Monks Risborough and Buckinghamshire. Send us the address for a quote.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Most children like pork in a soft roll, and chicken or a vegan sausage covers fussy eaters.
Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Think about children’s portions
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork for the alternatives
At food time, we carve and serve, then tidy up.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.

Sunset in Monks Risborough is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, so an early-evening carve is usually in daylight. After about 3:55pm in December, we need light to carve.
