What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook. In December, Colworth is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve and serve through the agreed hours.
- We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
Before we arrive
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Let us know about tight access

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
