How our hog roast hire works in Quarrendon Estate
Hiring a hog roast means a whole hog cooked slowly on site, over several hours, outdoors under cover. When it’s ready, our chef carves it and our staff serve it in soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. On the menu are salads, new potatoes and coleslaw, and we are regularly asked to cater village fêtes and school fairs and wedding breakfasts and evening food.
In and around Quarrendon Estate, gardens and village halls are common choices. If the lane is narrow, tell us so we can plan our vehicle. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Your questions about a hog roast in Quarrendon Estate
Can you cater after a service at St Peter's?
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. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat.
What’s included?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Will people get crackling?
Of course: slow roasting crisps the skin and we break it up for everyone.
Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
Everything for serving comes with us, so you only need to provide the space.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Catered or do it yourself?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
What the cooking area needs
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:
- Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle
- Access for our equipment, without steps
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
