Hog roast for events in Bay View, carved to order
At a fête, fair or festival in Bay View, a hog roast stall draws a crowd. We roast on the pitch through the day and carve rolls to order, keeping the queue moving. Popular choices include apple sauce, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for community days and street fairs and school fairs and sports days.
Near Bay View, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hog roast goes down well. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish before you book.

Step by step
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. For an autumn event in Bay View, 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.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about tight access
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

What we serve, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Before you choose a spot
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- A level pitch
- Permission for cooking on the site
- Space away from marquees, stalls and trees
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What else we do in Bay View
Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
