Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Make the stall easy to find
- Halal isn’t offered
- Show allergens at the stall
If the ground is soft, we will need a firm route on and off, particularly in wet weather.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
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.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What else we do in Black Bourton
What a hog roast costs
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Plates or china
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- How many people are eating
- Access to the cooking area
A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

How it works
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you are ready. Late-September events in Black Bourton lose the light at about 7:10pm, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
