Your questions about a hog roast for your team in Townhill Park
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Could you cook in Riverside Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
How do we book for a business?
Send your requirements, and the quote will include the terms.
Can it be more formal?
It can be as relaxed or polished as you like, with plates or china.
How big a hog will we need?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Can you set up in our car park?
A car park, yard or grounds usually works, if there’s a level spot away from buildings and vehicles.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
Afterwards we tidy up, leaving the site as we found it.
A second meat gives the team a choice.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
