Book a hog roast in Stratfield Mortimer

How the day works

A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. Evening parties in Stratfield Mortimer need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it’s around 7:10pm. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.

  1. Send a photo of where the roaster could go.
  2. We confirm it works and send a quote.
  3. We cook for hours on site.
  4. We serve when you’re ready.
  5. We leave the garden tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
  • Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
  • Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Stratfield Mortimer questions

Is Stratfield Mortimer too small for a hog roast?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

We are gathering after a service at Saint John The Evangelist: can you cater?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.

Can you cater for vegetarians?

The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.

Do you leave the area tidy?

Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.

Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?

Not for the cooking, but a gazebo or indoor space for guests is a good backup.

What happens in bad weather?

We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.

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?

Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

Prices and what affects them

We work out each quote from:

  • Time on site
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Whether you want china
  • The number of people

For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

Details that help

Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:

  • Where the event is
  • A picture of the cooking area
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
  • Any dietary needs or allergies

It is easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. You’ll get a clear quote listing what’s included. Fill in our quote form.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
  • Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
  • Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
  • Request gluten-free rolls

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

Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

Before you choose a spot

The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:

  • Neighbours warned about the smell
  • Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
  • A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains

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