Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with burger vans, a hog roast stands out at a traditional fête. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups usually cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why book with us
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- An itemised quote

Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:

- Make the stall easy to find
- Plan separately for halal if needed
We get to the pitch early, so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Step by step
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. Late-September events in Ashmansworth lose the light at about 7:10pm, so evening trading needs lights.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- You get a check on the date and pitch, and a quote.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We serve to order through the event.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Give us a contact number for the day
