Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to sandwich platters, hot carved pork feels much more special. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why us?
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

Should I cook it myself?
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.
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.
