DIY versus a catered hog roast

Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

What affects the price in Buscot

Each price is built from:

  • Site access
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The number of people
  • Which meats and sides you choose

Travel matters for the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address for an accurate figure.

What to tell us

When you contact us, please mention:

  • The date and time of the event
  • The address or postcode
  • Which meats and sides you’d like
  • An estimate of numbers

Where the roaster can go in Buscot

A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:

  • Power for lights in the evening
  • A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn
  • Permission for outside catering

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Organising for someone else?

For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

Why choose a hog roast in Buscot?

Next to a cold buffet, hot carved pork beats sandwiches every time late at night. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

Why book with us

  • A clear quote with everything listed
  • Sides to make it a full meal
  • Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
  • Crackling for everyone who wants it

Read our pricing and what a hog roast costs.

How the day works

A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. Golden-hour photos in Buscot at midsummer come around 9:30pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. Sunset is around 9:00pm in late May and 7:10pm in late September.

  1. You tell us your date, venue, numbers and whether it is the wedding breakfast, the evening or both.
  2. You get a check on the date and venue, and a quote.
  3. We fit our timings around your running order and the venue.
  4. The hog roasts through the afternoon, and our chef carves on cue.
  5. Our staff clear the serving area and we leave quietly.

Preparing for the day

  • Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
  • Let us know about tight access

Your questions about a hog roast for your wedding in Buscot

How far is Buscot from London?

Roughly 69 miles from the centre of London.

We are gathering after a service at The Church of St Mary: can you cater?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.

Is a hog roast enough for a wedding?

For the main meal, add sides such as salads and potatoes; in the evening, rolls on their own work well.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.

How much room do you need?

A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will confirm the space with your quote.

Do you do DIY hog roast hire?

Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.

How much does a hog roast cost?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we’ll quote.

Do we need to provide electricity?

Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.

  • Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
  • Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
  • Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
