About the food
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll, just as they should.
Where the roaster can go in Hacton

Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
How it works
People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your staff, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. For a staff lunch in Hacton, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:50pm, so plan lighting for later events. Summer events have daylight until around 9:20pm.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- We check access and the cooking area, then quote.
- We arrive in good time and start the roast under cover.
- We serve quickly within your break.
- We pack away and leave the site as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Think about shelter for your staff
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
Getting a price

Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
At the agreed time, our chef carves and our staff serve, keeping the queue moving.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
