Organising for someone else?
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a normal lunch from the kitchen, a hog roast day feels like an outing without leaving home. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups usually cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.

The menu, dish by dish
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.
Rotisserie chicken
Golden rotisserie chicken goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.
The process
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. In summer, Home Farm has daylight until about 9:25pm, so an afternoon in the garden works well. In winter, dark by about 3:55pm, a lunchtime event is better.
- We talk through residents’ needs with your team.
- You get a clear price.
- We set up outdoors, clear of access routes.
- Food goes out on plates.
- We tidy up and go.
How to prepare
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
