Book a hog roast in Bouldnor
Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

Working with your venue
If you’re booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
The process
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. Summer events in Bouldnor have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:10pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter events, dark by about 4:05pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- 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 pack down and take our waste.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
