For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.
Step by step
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Chalkshire are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We clear up and go.
Before we arrive

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with burger vans, a hog roast stands out. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
If the ground is soft, we’ll need a firm route on and off, particularly in wet weather.
A vegan burger or sausage covers vegan visitors.
What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- A safe distance from other traders
- A queuing area
- A firm way on and off the field
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.
