Should I cook it myself?

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

A closer look at the menu

Stuffing and apple sauce

Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, cutting through the richness of the pork.

Rotisserie chicken

For staff who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.

What a hog roast costs

The biggest factors are:

  • How long the roast and service take
  • The number of people
  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • Site access

When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

Getting an accurate quote

When you contact us, please mention:

  • Any venue rules
  • The address or postcode
  • Which meats and sides you’d like
  • What the outdoor space is like

A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Fill in our quote form.

Allergies and dietary needs

You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:

  • Put the allergen list where people can see it
  • Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, for the alternatives
  • Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed

We set up on the agreed spot, frequently first thing, and the roast cooks through the morning.

Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

  • Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
  • Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
  • Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
