DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

Name someone in facilities or reception for the day, so we can find you quickly.

How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Daytime open days in Mystole are rarely affected by light, but in December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so late events need lighting.
- Start with the date, site and numbers.
- We check with facilities and quote.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Service is fast once we carve.
- We clear up afterwards.
Getting ready for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
