Should I cook it myself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Who books party hog roast in Olney?
Children usually love it, and chicken or a vegan sausage covers fussier eaters.
Our roaster has been booked for a wide mix of occasions near Olney, such as:

Common questions in Olney
We are gathering after a service at Church of Saints Peter and Paul: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Is Olney close to London?
About 52 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can you do a hog roast in our back garden?
Describe the space and the way in, and we will give you an honest answer.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
What happens in bad weather?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your party for a quote.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.

Compared with a barbecue, no one gets stuck at the grill, and the food is ready for everyone at once. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
