About the food
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Organising for someone else?
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.

Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Step by step
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. In December, it is dark in Moulsecoomb by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting for any party after mid-afternoon. We set up in daylight and roast into the evening.
- Ask early for a December date.
- We check your venue and send a quote.
- We arrive while it’s light and set up under cover.
- We serve pork, turkey and sides.
- We tidy up and leave.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
