Full catering or machine hire?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
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.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with sandwich platters, a hog roast is hot, fresh and feels like an event. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why us?
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Carved to order by a chef
- Timed around your day
