Party hog roast in Upper Brailes
How our party hog roast works in Upper Brailes
A party at home needs a little planning for the roaster: level ground outdoors, clear of the house and fences. We will help you choose. Typical bookings include christenings and naming days and getting-engaged parties, with a vegan burger or sausage, hog roast rolls and jacket potatoes.
Country parties near Upper Brailes suit a hog roast: slow-roasted and eaten outside. Plan shelter in case it rains. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

Upper Brailes: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Upper Brailes?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St George?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
Is there a non-pork option?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat.
Do we need cover?
We cover the cooking area, but plan somewhere dry for guests.
How long does the roast need?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
Yes, we clear up after service.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Space, access and the venue
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- A wet-weather plan for guests
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

What happens on the day
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. A summer party in Upper Brailes stays light until about 9:30pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:10pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Tell us about your party: date, address and numbers.
- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We set up hours ahead.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Let us know about tight access
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
