How the day works
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. After-work summer events in Rusthall have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer and 8:50pm in late May, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. In late September, the light goes at about 7:05pm.
- We start with the site, date, numbers and lunch break.
- You get a check on the date and the site, and a quote.
- On the day we set up and roast through the morning.
- We serve quickly within your break.
- We tidy up and leave the site clean.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Send final numbers in good time
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

What paperwork do you provide for our site?
Tell us what your site asks for, and we’ll tell you what we can send.

Is a hog roast smart enough for clients?
It can be dressed up, depending on the crockery and menu.

We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.

What a hog roast costs
Your quote depends on:
- Whether you want china
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Time on site
- Menu choices and extras
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Planners, venues and businesses
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
