Slow-roasted pork in Lower Froyle
The process
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Open days in Lower Froyle usually finish in daylight, though in winter it’s dark by about 4:00pm.
- Tell us where, when, how many and the serving time.
- We check site access and send a price.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- The team carves and serves on time.
- We pack away and leave the site as we found it.
Getting ready for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
How to get a price
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your staff event: use our quote form.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.

What a hog roast costs
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every staff event is different. What matters most:
- Plates or china
- Menu choices and extras
- The date and time of year
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Getting an accurate quote
To check the date and the space, tell us:
- The address or postcode
- The date and time of the event
- Allergies we should know about
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so you can compare caterers fairly. Send us your details through our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
We serve on time, so people get back to work on time.
If it is a themed open day, tell us.
