The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children generally like it too.
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll.
What the cooking area needs
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
- A word with the neighbours
- Somewhere for us to park nearby
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

The process
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. In Wash Water, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 4:00pm in December, we need light to carve.
- 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 tidy up and pack away.
How to prepare

DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
How we price a hog roast for your party
The biggest factors are:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The date and time of year
- How long the roast and service take
- Plates or china
UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
What to tell us
These are the details we need:
- Your date and serving time
- The address or postcode
- Allergies we should know about
- Anything the venue has asked for
It’s easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
