Full catering or machine hire?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Planning help
The menu, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
We’ll sign in and follow site rules.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Access through the site gates
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
