Should I cook it myself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Looking after everyone
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
Afterwards we tidy up, and leave the site clean.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

What we serve, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, and it’s carved the same way, frequently with mint sauce.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
The process
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. Lunchtime bookings in Wellhouse are in daylight all year; winter evening events are dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit cooking area. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.
- You send us the site address, date, numbers and serving window.
- We check site access and send a price.
- We arrive in good time and start the roast under cover.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve to your timings.
- We pack away and leave the site as we found it.
Preparing for the day
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

Wellhouse: your questions answered
Do you come out to small places like Wellhouse?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
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.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.
Can you do a hog roast for a client event?
Yes. Add china, sides and a second roast for a more formal feel.

You do not need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
