Your questions about a hog roast for the crew in Northumberland Heath
Can you do a hog roast in Braeburn Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first.

Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
Can you serve at our lunch call?
We plan the roast to your lunch call, and we will be ready.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Do you go to remote locations?
Share the route to base and we will confirm.
What about crew who don’t eat pork?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
