Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- A word with the neighbours
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Wootton
Do you come out to small places like Wootton?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: 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 usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Do you do DIY hire for parties?
You can hire the machine. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Do we need to wash up?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
Have a word with the neighbours first: the roast cooks for hours, and they may ask for a roll.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
How the day works
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you are ready. Autumn parties in Wootton get dark early: about 7:10pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. Light the garden path and the serving area.
- Tell us about your party: date, address and numbers.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
How to get a price

Organising for someone else?
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
