Party hog roast in Timsbury, slow-roasted on site
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. We serve rotisserie chicken, crackling and coleslaw, and we’re frequently booked for wedding anniversaries and christenings and naming days.
Near Timsbury, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve.
What affects the price in Timsbury
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Distance from us
- Plates or china
- Site access
- Season and day of the week
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What to tell us
For a quick, accurate price, send us:
- Your date and serving time
- The address or postcode
- A picture of the cooking area
- An estimate of numbers
Not sure how many to cater for? Give us your best estimate and we will quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Use our quote form.

Working with your venue
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Think about children’s portions
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so it is cooking when guests arrive.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.

- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
