About our hog roast for events in Brookgreen
Every event handles food differently: a catered package paid by the organiser, or a stall selling to visitors. Tell us how you’d like it to work. We’re frequently asked to cater charity fundraisers and festivals, serving halloumi skewers, a vegan burger or sausage and apple sauce.
At a field event near Brookgreen, power and water may be limited; we cook on gas, so we do not need mains power. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a barbecue stall, a hog roast serves quickly from one roast. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. Every event gets its own quote, with everything listed.
Why book with us
- Timed around your day
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Carved to order by a chef
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside

Step by step
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Brookgreen are dark by about 4:05pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.
Before we arrive
- Name a contact for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Signpost the stall clearly
- Show allergens at the stall
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
We carve to order through the agreed hours.
If your event has a theme, tell us.
Space, access and the venue
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- Any paperwork the organisers need
- Flat, firm ground for the roaster
- Permission for cooking on the site
For somewhere as remote as Brookgreen, early notice helps us plan the trip.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Working with your venue
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Brookgreen questions
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Do you come out to small places like Brookgreen?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you cover Brookgreen?
Yes, Brookgreen is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll check the date.
Can you come to a PTA fair?
School fairs suit a hog roast. Ask the school about vehicles on site.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Where does the hog roast go?
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 check it with you before booking.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Catered or do it yourself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, perfect for eating on the move. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
