Slow-roasted pork in Neatham
The process
The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. After-work summer events in Neatham have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer and 8:55pm in late May, which suits a team barbecue-style evening. By late September, sunset is around 7:05pm.
- You send us the site address, date, numbers and serving window.
- We check site access and send a price.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- We serve quickly within your break.
- We pack away and leave the site as we found it.
Before we arrive
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
How to get a price

DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
