DIY versus a catered hog roast
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Approval from facilities for gas equipment
- Access through the site gates
- Someone to meet us at reception
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

For event organisers in Munstead Heath

If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

- Share the allergen information with the team

We set up on the agreed spot, frequently first thing, then roast through the morning.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
