Roughly 52 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of Saints Peter and Paul: 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 generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.

It is built around the hog, but lamb and chicken can be added.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
