About our hog roast for events in Atherington
Sports clubs, fun runs and tournaments suit a hog roast. Whether it is church and village fêtes and charity fundraisers, we will put together a menu of a vegan burger or sausage, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls.
At a fête or show near Atherington, we can cook in a field. Tell us about the ground and the way in. The carving happens right in front of your visitors, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

It suits long days, carving as people arrive.
Whatever the occasion in Atherington, a slow roast goes a long way. We are frequently asked to cater:

- Community days and street fairs

What your quote should include
- The deposit, balance and cancellation terms
- Whether plates or china are included
- How many staff will carve and serve
- How they handle allergens and dietary needs
Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.

We follow the organiser’s site rules, including vehicle times and pitch layout.
Chicken widens the choice.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
The menu, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
