Questions from Shover's Green
Is Shover's Green close to London?
About 37 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
We are gathering after a service at Shover's Green Baptist Chapel: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will talk it through when we quote.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We’ll bring the rest.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
Do you bring a gazebo?
We cover the cooking area, but a gazebo or indoor space for guests is a good backup.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Access to the cooking area
- Whether you want china
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What we need to know
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- An estimate of numbers
- The address or postcode
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
Every party is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your party: send us your details through our quote form.
About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with takeaway pizzas, a hog roast is part of the party, not just the food. Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address for an accurate figure.
What you get with us
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
See how we price or the cost guide.
Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Think about children’s portions
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat
- A heads-up for next door
- Parking close to the house
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
