How the day works
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In December, Bentley Heath is dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- Tell us about the event.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Have a level outdoor spot ready

Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Tell us if there’s a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Check other traders aren’t all selling pork
- Show allergens at the stall
Give us a contact on the day.

Bentley Heath: your questions answered
Which station is closest to Bentley Heath?
Potters Bar station, about 1 mile north of the centre.
Can you do a hog roast in King George's Fields (Monken Hadley)?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you need power on site?
Just a pitch, access and any agreed paperwork. Everything else comes with us.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Can you come to a PTA fair?
We do. Check vehicle access with the school.
Do we need to provide electricity?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
Do you trade at village fêtes?
We love fêtes. Get in touch.
What will our event need from you?
Organisers frequently ask for a risk assessment or gas safety details. Let us know what you need.
What affects the price in Bentley Heath
The price comes down to:
- Site access
- Distance from us
- Season and day of the week
- Which meats and sides you choose
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What to tell us
When you enquire, please mention:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- A picture of the cooking area
- An estimate of numbers
- Which meats and sides you’d like
Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, then confirm closer to the date. Fill in our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Should I cook it myself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
