Can visitors buy their own food?
Some events pay for a package, others want a stall. We’ll agree what suits yours.

Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.
How far ahead should we book?

Mainly a pitch and access. Everything else comes with us.
How the day works
Your timings come first. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. Late-May events in Blenheim have light until about 8:55pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:25pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.

- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We roast on the pitch.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We clear up and go.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Send final numbers in good time
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
How to get a price
Every event is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: use our quote form.
Planning help
Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Tell us if there’s a vegetarian or vegan focus
At the end, we pack down and take our waste.
A vegan burger or sausage covers vegan visitors.
Organising for someone else?
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Flat, firm ground for the roaster
- A safe distance from other traders
- Details of what the event requires
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Is a hog roast right for your event?

Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, 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 big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
What comes off the roaster
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
