Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a full location catering unit, a hog roast suits single days and smaller crews. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why us?
- Carved by our chef in front of your crew
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Cooked on the day, low and slow

What we serve, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, with gluten-free rolls on request.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Stuffing usually contains gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Collect crew dietary needs from the call sheet
- Label the alternatives clearly
A cooked roast can wait.
Ask about china.
For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
