Slow-roasted pork in Bordon
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a barbecue stall, a hog roast serves quickly from one roast. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why book our hog roast in Bordon
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- An itemised quote
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Sides to make it a full meal

About our hog roast for events in Bordon
Every event handles food differently: a catered package paid by the organiser, or a stall selling to visitors. Let us know what you have in mind. We serve apple sauce, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls, and typical bookings are for charity fundraisers and car shows and rallies.
In Bordon, one popular trader keeps it simple. Roast pork rolls do exactly that. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Check other traders aren’t all selling pork
- Halal isn’t offered
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Remember stuffing typically contains gluten
We clear the pitch and take everything away.
If your event has a theme, tell us.

About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, served in a roll with salads.
Working with your venue
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Event approval for hot-food traders
- A level pitch with firm ground
- Clearance from other stalls and tents
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Common questions in Bordon
Is Bordon close to London?
About 43 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Do you trade at school fairs around Bordon?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
What space does the roaster need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will confirm the space with your quote.
Can you come to a PTA fair?
We do. Check vehicle access with the school.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
How it works
We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can enjoy your event in Bordon. For an autumn event in Bordon, sunset is around 7:05pm in late September, so evening trading needs lights.
