FAQs for South Weston

How far is South Weston from London?

Roughly 40 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Do you come out to small places like South Weston?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Can you work around our timings?

We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

Should we warn the neighbours?

It is worth warning them: roasting takes hours. Some hosts invite them over for a roll.

Does the roaster have to be outside?

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.

How big a hog will we need?

We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.

Do you bring plates?

We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.

What space does the roaster need?

Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you’re unsure.

How our party hog roast works in South Weston

A party at home needs a little planning for the roaster: level ground outdoors, clear of the house and fences. We’ll help you choose. For back-garden get-togethers and reunions, we’ll put together a menu of jacket potatoes, coleslaw and a vegan burger or sausage.

Near South Weston, parties are often in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

For planners, venues and organisers

Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.

A closer look at the menu

Roast pork

Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, so it stays hot and juicy.

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, in a roll, with salad on the side.

A hog roast compared with other options

Compared with a restaurant booking, a hog roast at home lets everyone relax in the garden. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Why us?

  • Our staff serve and clear
  • Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
  • Choices for people who do not eat pork
  • No surprises: everything in writing

Planning the cooking spot

The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:

  • A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
  • A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
  • Somewhere for us to park nearby

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

  • Jacket potatoes
  • Halloumi skewers (V)
  • Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Full catering or machine hire?

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

Planning for dietary needs

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
  • Think about children’s portions
  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food

At food time, we carve and serve, then clear up the serving area.

Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.

  • Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
  • Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
  • Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
