For planners, venues and organisers

Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.

Prices and what affects them

We don’t use a fixed price list, because every wedding is different. The main factors are:

  • Season and day of the week
  • The number of people
  • Travel to Olney
  • Which meats and sides you choose

For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

What we need to know

To check availability and the cooking area, we’ll need:

  • The date and time of the event
  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
  • The address or postcode

Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: send us your details through our quote form.

Planning for dietary needs

Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Request gluten-free rolls if needed
  • Halal isn’t offered, so plan separately if needed
  • Confirm final numbers a week or so before
  • Note which guests do not eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options

If speeches overrun or the band starts late, we adjust. Just keep us informed.

A hog roast compared with other options

If your venue does its own catering, ask whether outside caterers are allowed for evening food. There may be a fee. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

The process

The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Winter weddings in Olney are dark by about 3:50pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the food.

  1. We start with your date, venue, numbers and running order.
  2. We check the venue and the cooking spot and send a price.
  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

  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Gather dietary requirements early

The menu, dish by dish

Rotisserie chicken

Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.

Space, access and the venue

The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:

  • A safe distance from marquee walls, buildings and trees
  • Serving inside the marquee or barn if allowed
  • A level, open cooking spot outside the marquee or barn

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
