Can a company book?
Send your requirements, and the quote will include the terms.

Why choose a hog roast in Manor House?
Next to a staff barbecue, nobody from the team is stuck cooking. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
What you get with us

How the day works
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your staff will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In Manor House, summer evenings stay light until about 9:20pm, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. In late September, the light goes at about 7:05pm.
- Send us the site, date, numbers and break time.
- We check access and gas rules and quote.
- We set up early and roast through the morning.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve on time.
- We pack away and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
We follow your site’s sign-in and safety rules, and keep vehicles where you ask.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
