How the day works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell generally brings people over long before we carve. In Lindford, December daylight ends around 4:00pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.

- We confirm the space and send a price.
- The roast starts in the afternoon.
- Our chef carves and staff serve.
- We pack up, even in the rain.
Getting ready for the day

- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Planning help
Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
