A country party near Shedfield is perfect for a hog roast: slow-roasted and eaten outside. Plan shelter in case it rains. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
FAQs for Shedfield
Is Shedfield too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St John?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Can you do a hog roast in our back garden?
Tell us about the garden and the access, and we will tell you if it works.
How much room do you need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.
Do we need our own staff?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Can you cater in Shedfield?
Yes, Shedfield is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll confirm availability.

What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Menu choices and extras
- Crockery choices
- Site access
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- A picture of the cooking area
- The address or postcode
- Roughly how many people
- Your date and serving time
For a quote, send us a few details: the date and serving time, the venue or SO32 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Fill in our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
At food time, we carve and serve, then tidy up.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, quoted separately.
Space, access and the venue
Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- Clearance from walls, fences and overhanging branches
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
