About the food
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, easy to eat standing up. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
How our hog roast for events works in Charndon
For a school fair, you want food families will queue for. There are options for most visitors. For charity fundraisers and summer fêtes, we will put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, apple sauce and halloumi skewers and more.
For a village fête or field event near Charndon, we can cook in a field. Ground and access matter, so tell us about them. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

How the day works
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Charndon are dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.
How to prepare
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Gather dietary requirements early
