Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

What to tell us
To check the date and the space, we’ll need:
- Dietary requirements
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Roughly how many people
- What the outdoor space is like
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your party for a quote: send us your details through our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
Make sure the gate or side passage is open when we arrive, so we can bring everything through.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.
What the cooking area needs
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A wet-weather plan for guests
- Parking close to the house
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage

Should I cook it myself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
