Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
At a winter fair, a hog roast stall is one of the most popular hot-food options. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why Kingston Bagpuize hosts choose us
- Carved to order by a chef
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
