Full catering or machine hire?
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.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
What happens on the day
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can get on with your staff event. Open days in Ludgershall usually finish in daylight, though in winter it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so late events need lighting.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- We check site access and send a price.
- On the day we set up and roast through the morning.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve to your timings.
- Afterwards we clear up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
