- Book early for December.
- We check your venue and send a quote.
- We arrive while it is light and set up under cover.
- We serve pork, turkey and sides.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Preparing for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Send final numbers in good time

Full catering or machine hire?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Space, access and the venue
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- Parking near the cooking area
- A hall, office or heated marquee for guests
