Hog roast for events near Ascott Earl
Organisers need traders who turn up and serve well. We bring everything, roast on the pitch and leave it clean. We serve apple sauce, a vegan burger or sausage and halloumi skewers, and we are frequently booked for church and village fêtes and country shows.

The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll, just as they should.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a barbecue stall, carving is faster than grilling to order. For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

How we price a hog roast for your event
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Whether you want china
- The date and time of year
- The journey to the venue
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Getting an accurate quote
When you enquire, please mention:
- Rough numbers
- Anything the venue has asked for
- What the outdoor space is like
- Any dietary needs or allergies
When you are weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. We spell it out in ours. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
Full catering or machine hire?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
