For planners, venues and organisers
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.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.
Allergies and dietary needs
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Keep alternatives clearly labelled
We’ll sign in and follow site rules, and keep vehicles where you ask.
Tell us about branding or theming for open days and we will fit in.
Why choose a hog roast in Upton?
Compared with sandwich platters, a hog roast is hot, fresh and feels like an event. 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.
What you get with us
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Planned to your running order
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated

About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables.
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
What happens on the day
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell generally brings people over long before we carve. After-work summer events in Upton have light until about 9:25pm at midsummer and 8:55pm in late May, so an after-work hog roast works well in summer. By late September, sunset is around 7:05pm.
