For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
A hog roast or other catering?
Instead of organising a trip, a hog roast at the home is easier for residents with mobility needs. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

How the day works
Here’s how the day normally runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you are ready. In late May, sunset in Northfields is about 8:55pm, so a spring hog roast day can carry on into the evening.
- A date and rough headcount from the home gets things started.
- We look at photos of the garden or car park and suggest a cooking spot.
- Your kitchen team tells us about diets and textures.
- On the day the hog roasts outside while residents watch from the lounge or garden.
- Lunch is carved and served, and we pack away quietly afterwards.
Preparing for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
