DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
What the cooking area needs
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- A contact on site
- Your site’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- A level spot in the car park, yard or grounds
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
We serve on time, so people get back to work on time.

Organising for someone else?
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.

Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to sandwich platters, a hog roast is hot, fresh and feels like an event. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
