DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Planners, venues and businesses
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
What we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

Bachelor's Bump questions
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
How far is Bachelor's Bump from London?
Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you do a school fair?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Tell us the date and pitch.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can you help with a fundraiser?
Get in touch and we will see what’s possible.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
What will our event need from you?
Organisers often ask for a risk assessment or gas safety details. Let us know what you need.
How it works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your visitors will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. For an autumn event in Bachelor's Bump, sunset is around 7:00pm in late September, so plan lighting if you are trading into the evening.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- On the day we set up under cover and get the hog on.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
How to prepare
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Planning for dietary needs
Some visitors won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Tell us if there’s a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
- Balance the food line-up
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
We clear the pitch and take everything away.
The vegan option is popular at festivals.
