Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Rules from the venue or landowner

Questions from Four Ashes
What’s the nearest station to Four Ashes?
High Wycombe station, about 1.8 miles south of the centre.
Can you cater after a service at St Michael and All Angels Church?
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 typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Is there a non-pork option?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Can we offer lamb too?
Of course: lamb and pork together give guests a choice.
What we serve, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which works well for larger groups.
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

Planning help
What the cooking area needs

- Clear space away from the marquee and any branches
- Approval from the venue or marquee supplier
- Light near the carving station after dark
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
