Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with burger vans, a hog roast stands out. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
Why us?
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Cooked on the day, low and slow

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, served in a roll with salads.
How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Botolphs are dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We roast on the pitch.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We clear up and go.
How to prepare
- Name a contact for the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Think about shelter for your visitors

Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, 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 you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
