DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
What happens on the day
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. In December, it is dark in Mildmay by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.

Mildmay questions
Could you cook in Highbury Fields?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What if our house in Mildmay has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.
Working with your venue
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Find out who’d prefer turkey or chicken
- Label alternatives clearly
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
We serve hot rolls on cue, carved fresh.
