At the end, we pack down and take our waste.

Hog roast for events near Beauworth
How the food is paid for depends on the event: a catered package paid by the organiser, or a stall selling to visitors. Tell us how you’d like it to work. Whether it’s village fêtes and festivals, we will put together a menu of crackling, a vegan burger or sausage and hog roast rolls.
At a fête or show near Beauworth, a hog roast brings hot food to a rural site. Tell us about the ground and the way in. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.
How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power. At midsummer, events in Beauworth stay light until about 9:25pm, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- 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
- Name a contact for the day
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Do you come out to small places like Beauworth?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you trade at village fêtes?
Yes, fêtes are a natural fit. Tell us the date, pitch and how food will be paid for.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
What about visitors who don’t eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
What’s included?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Room for a queue that doesn’t block paths
- A level pitch with firm ground
- A safe distance from other traders
