About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.

Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Planners, venues and businesses
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team.
Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Add dietary questions to the invite
- Count who doesn’t eat pork
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
If the party runs late, we can hold the roast a little, so keep us posted.
Roast turkey can be added.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
You can combine: pork for the crackling fans, turkey for traditionalists. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
Why us?
- Planned to your running order
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- An itemised quote
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
