Moor Street questions
Could you cook in Berengrave Chalk Pit?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you come out to small places like Moor Street?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not something we offer.
Do children like hog roasts?
Most children like pork in a soft roll, with chicken as an alternative.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Is clearing up included?
Yes, we clear up after service, so there’s very little washing up.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.

For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.

What we serve, dish by dish

Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
What affects the price in Moor Street
There is no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- The number of people
- Access to the cooking area
- Plates or china

Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- The venue or postcode
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Any dietary needs or allergies
Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Request gluten-free rolls
We get there early to start the roast, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
How it works
We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can get on with your party. Autumn parties in Moor Street get dark early: about 7:00pm by late September and 3:50pm by December. Plan lights for the path and the food.

- You get a check on the date and the cooking spot, and a quote.
