Hog roast for events in Brooklands
Hog roast for events in Brooklands, slow-roasted on site
For a school fair, you want food families will queue for. Pork rolls, chicken and a vegan option cover most visitors. Whether it’s car and steam shows and charity days, we’ll put together a menu of halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken.
Summer fairs around Brooklands are frequently run by volunteers, so a trader who brings everything is a bonus. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish.
Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to cold food, hot rolls are welcome whatever the weather. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Why Brooklands hosts choose us
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Timed around your day
- Carved to order by a chef
- Serving and clearing done for you
See our prices page and the cost guide.
What a hog roast costs
Here’s what affects the price:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Distance from us
- Access to the cooking area
- Plates or china
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Details that help
To get the best quote, tell us:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- A photo of the cooking area
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the event is and roughly how many. A picture of the cooking area helps. Send us your details through our quote form.
Questions from Brooklands
Could you cook in Woburn Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you trade at school fairs around Brooklands?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Tell us the date and pitch details.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will talk it through when we quote.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: use our quote form.
Can you come to our fête?
We love fêtes. Ask for details.
What about visitors who don’t eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
The process
Here’s how the day typically runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. At midsummer, events in Brooklands stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Preparing for the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
