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. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
What you get with us
- Timed around your day
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- An itemised quote
- Carved to order by a chef

Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Working with your venue
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.
