What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- A level spot in the car park, yard or grounds
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
- Space away from buildings, vehicles and trees
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
