Catered or do it yourself?

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.

What affects the price in Old Warren

There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:

  • How many people are eating
  • Site access
  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • Whether you want china

What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.

Planning the cooking spot

Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:

  • A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
  • A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
  • Somewhere for us to park nearby

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Working with your venue

Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.

How the day works

We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Evening parties in Old Warren need a little planning: it is light until about 9:25pm in June but only about 7:10pm in late September. Lights by the food keep the party going.

  1. Send a picture of where the roaster could go.
  2. We confirm it works and send a quote.
  3. On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
  4. We serve when you are ready.
  5. We leave the garden tidy.

How to prepare

  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Old Warren

Can you cater after a service at The Parish Church of St.Saviours?

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. Send us the address.

Could you cook in Padworth Common Local Nature Reserve?

Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first.

Do children like hog roasts?

Most children like pork in a soft roll, and chicken or a vegan sausage covers fussy eaters.

What’s the price?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.

Is there a non-pork option?

Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We don’t offer halal meat.

How much room do you need?

A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.

When should we book?

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.

Do we need our own staff?

We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.

A closer look at the menu

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.

Planning for dietary needs

We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:

  • Keep the vegetarian option labelled
  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives

On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.

Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.

  • Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
  • Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
  • Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
  • Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
