Why choose a hog roast in East Challow?
Compared with a restaurant outing, a hog roast keeps everyone on site and saves travel. The main driver is numbers: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What you get with us
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Our staff serve and clear
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Planned to your running order
See our prices page and our hog roast cost guide.
Catered or do it yourself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Where the roaster can go in East Challow
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:
- Sign-off for outside caterers
- Access through the site gates
- Someone to meet us at reception
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
