Book a hog roast in Egypt
How the day works
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. For a summer hog roast day in Egypt, residents can enjoy the garden in daylight until about 9:25pm, which makes garden events easy. In December, with dark by about 4:00pm, lunchtime is best.
- We start with the date, numbers of residents, staff and visitors, and the time.
- We check the grounds and send a price.
- We set up under cover and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve where you choose: dining room, lounge or garden.
- Afterwards we pack up quietly.
Preparing for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance

Golden rotisserie chicken goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
- Tell us who does not eat pork
- Tell us about dietary needs in advance
- Stuffing generally contains gluten
We arrive early and set up outdoors, following the home’s procedures.
Chicken can be added.
Working with your venue
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to the usual lunch, a hog roast brings the event to residents. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
