Uffington questions
Do you come out to small places like Uffington?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Uffington from London?
Roughly 63 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Who serves?
You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Do children like hog roasts?
Yes, and tell us how many children are coming, so we get the amounts right.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. We will explain the details with your quote.
Will the smell bother the neighbours?
Let them know in advance, especially if the roaster is near a fence.
Do we need cover?
The roaster has its own cover; plan shelter for guests in bad weather.
How the day works
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. Evening parties in Uffington need a little planning: it is light until about 9:25pm in June but only about 7:10pm in late September. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.
- Tell us about your party: date, address and numbers.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We set up hours ahead.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know about tight access
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Gather dietary requirements early

Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Add a dietary question to the invite
A cooked roast holds for a while, so just let us know.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
