Working with your venue
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Find out how many do not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
We serve on time, keeping the queue moving.
Add rotisserie chicken or lamb for choice.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- Sign-off for outside caterers
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a formal plated lunch, a hog roast is relaxed and typically better value. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Why Ramsden hosts choose us
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Carved to order by a chef
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
See how we price and the cost guide.
Catered or do it yourself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Your questions about a hog roast for your team in Ramsden

Can you set up in our car park?
Anywhere suitable and approved, as long as it’s outdoors.
Do you need power or water?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Is crockery included?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
The process
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. For a staff lunch in Ramsden, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 3:55pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. Summer events have daylight until around 9:30pm.
