How our hog roast for events works in Broxhill
A hog roast fits a village fête perfectly: the smell draws people over, and a roll is easy to eat on the move. Whether it is village fêtes and PTA summer fairs, we can cook a vegan burger or sausage, crackling and hog roast rolls and more.
At a field event near Broxhill, power and water may be limited; the roaster runs on gas, so that is fine. Our chef carves in front of your visitors, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
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.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a barbecue stall, carving is faster than grilling to order. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why book with us
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- An itemised quote
- Sides to make it a full meal

The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll.
How the day works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. At midsummer, events in Broxhill stay light until about 9:25pm, which helps evening trading. For winter events, dark by about 4:05pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- 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
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
