How it works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In Martins Heron, December daylight ends around 3:55pm, so evening parties need lights and shelter.

About the food
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and there is a piece for everyone who wants it.
Roast turkey
Turkey and pork together cover traditionalists and crackling fans alike.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast copes much better with the cold. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why book with us
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to

If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
