Step by step
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Daytime open days in Yarbridge are rarely affected by light, though in winter it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so late events need lighting.

- We sort access and send a quote.

- We carve and serve quickly.
- We clear up afterwards.
Getting ready for the day

Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Collect dietary needs when you send the invite
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Put the allergen list where people can see it
Let us know about changes: we can hold the roast for a short time.
If it is a themed open day, tell us and we’ll fit in.
Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Access through the site gates
- A covered area or canteen for wet weather
- Flat ground in a car park or courtyard
Yarbridge is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we’ll plan the journey.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
