A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Shutford
Which station is closest to Shutford?
Banbury station, about 4.7 miles east of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Shutford?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What’s included?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Do you come to Shutford?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll check the date.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
How soon do you get booked up?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.
For planners, venues and organisers
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Think about children’s portions
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
Have a word with the neighbours first: the roast cooks for hours.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
How the day works
We work to your timings. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. For an evening party in Shutford, think about light: it is light until about 9:30pm in June but only about 7:10pm in late September. Lights by the food keep the party going.
