Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Whitsbury
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Leonard: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do you come out to small places like Whitsbury?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
We bring plates and clear up after service.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.

Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
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.

What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
The process
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. For an evening party in Whitsbury, think about light: it’s light until about 9:25pm in June but only about 7:10pm in late September. Lights by the food keep the party going.

Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Request gluten-free rolls
We set up in the agreed spot, leaving the garden to you and your guests.
