Slow-roasted pork in Ramsgate
Full catering or machine hire?

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:

Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
