Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
One hog roast and a couple of other stalls gives visitors a good choice. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
What happens on the day
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. For an autumn event in Broughton, sunset is around 7:10pm in late September, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We roast on the pitch.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We clear up and go.
Before we arrive
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Think about shelter for your visitors

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

How we price a hog roast for your event
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Travel to Broughton
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- How many people are eating
- Whether you want china
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What we need to know
To check the date and the space, we will need:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Rough numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The address or postcode
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Use our quote form.
Planning the cooking spot
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- Space away from marquees, stalls and trees
- Event approval for hot-food traders
- Your trader requirements
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
