About the food
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Our vegan option is a vegan burger or sausage, in a roll, with salad on the side.
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: golden, crunchy and salty, straight off the hog.
Organising for someone else?
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a barbecue, one roast serves everyone together. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
