DIY versus a catered hog roast

Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Compared with a formal plated lunch, a hog roast is relaxed and generally better value. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Why High Cogges hosts choose us

  • Crackling for everyone who wants it
  • Serving and clearing done for you
  • An itemised quote
  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside

How it works

Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. If your staff event in High Cogges runs into the evening, check the light: sunset ranges from about 9:30pm in June to 3:55pm in December.

  1. You send us the site address, date, numbers and serving window.
  2. We check site access and send a price.
  3. We arrive in good time and start the roast under cover.
  4. The team carves and serves on time.
  5. We pack away and leave the site as we found it.

Looking after everyone

Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Put the allergen list where people can see it
  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen list
  • Label the vegetarian and vegan food

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

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Organising for someone else?

If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.

For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

  • Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
  • Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
  • Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
