What you get with us
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Sides to make it a full meal
See our prices page and what a hog roast costs.
How it 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. By about 3:55pm in late December, Lower Brailes is dark. A Christmas party in the evening means carving under lights, and a lit path from the door.
- Tell us when and where the party is.
- We confirm the space and send a price.
- The roast starts in the afternoon.
- We carve and serve hot on cue.
- We clear away whatever the weather.
How to prepare
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
