Morestead questions
Which station is closest to Morestead?
Shawford station, about 2.4 miles west of the centre.
Is Morestead close to London?
About 60 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
What should we sort out beforehand?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We will bring the rest.
Do we need our own staff?
You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Do you bring a gazebo?
We bring cover for the roaster; guests will want somewhere dry to eat if it rains.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Party hog roast near Morestead
Hosting a party means juggling everything at once. With a hog roast, the food is sorted: we roast, carve, serve and clear. For naming ceremonies and neighbourhood parties, we can cook apple sauce, a vegan burger or sausage and coleslaw.
Near Morestead, parties are often in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will plan the route. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your guests.
How it works
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. At midsummer, it’s light in Morestead until about 9:25pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.
- Tell us about your party: date, address and numbers.

How to prepare

Working with your venue
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
How we price a hog roast for your party
Here’s what affects the price:
- How many people are eating
- Access to the cooking area
- How long the roast and service take
- Distance from us
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- The venue or postcode
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Rules from the venue or landowner
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We will check the date and send a quote. Fill in our quote form.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
At food time, we carve and serve, then clear up the serving area.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
What we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.

- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
