Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a barbecue run by staff, we take the cooking off your team. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Why us?
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Timed around your day

Step by step
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In Stratford, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so a lunchtime serving suits winter.
- We plan with your manager and kitchen.
- We send a quote.
- We set up outdoors, clear of access routes.
- We carve thinly and serve on plates.
- We tidy up and go.
Before we arrive
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Space, access and the venue
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- Sign-off from management
