For farms and rural sites near Fox, a hog roast brings a hot lunch to wherever the team is. Let us know about tracks and gates. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.
About the food
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, in a roll, with salad on the side.
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Some ideas:
- Find out how many do not eat pork, for the alternatives
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the site clean.
If it is a themed open day, tell us and we will fit in.

How it works
Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. After-work summer events in Fox have light until about 9:25pm at midsummer and 8:55pm in late May, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. By late September, sunset is around 7:10pm.

Planning the cooking spot
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:

- Rotisserie chicken
- Halloumi skewers (V)

Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors are:

- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Access to the cooking area
- Season and day of the week
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.
