What happens on the day
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. In December, daylight in Peartree Green ends around 4:00pm, so a late lunch or wrap at base needs lighting. In summer, light lasts until about 9:25pm.
- We start with the location, call times and numbers.
- We check the route and send a price.
- We agree where we set up and when we arrive.
- When lunch is called, we carve and serve quickly.
- Afterwards we clear our spot at base.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival

The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some crew will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Post allergen details at base
- Label the alternatives clearly
We serve quickly on the call.
Lamb or chicken gives the crew a choice.
For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Prices and what affects them
Each price is built from:
- Plates or china
- Numbers
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Time on site
For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
