Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

How the day works

- We check the venue and send a price.
- On the day we arrive early and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve hot when you are ready.
- We clear away, even on a dark, wet evening.
