The menu, dish by dish

Stuffing and apple sauce

Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Everything goes into a soft roll, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Planning for dietary needs

Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Show allergens at the stall
  • Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Tell us what the event asks of traders

Name an organiser to meet us, especially for big events.

If your event has a theme, tell us.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

One hog roast and a couple of other stalls makes a good food line-up. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

Why book with us

  • An itemised quote
  • Staff to serve, so you do not have to
  • Crackling for everyone who wants it
  • Choices for people who don’t eat pork

Read how we price and the cost guide.

Step by step

A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. Late-September events in Cookley Green lose the light at about 7:10pm, so plan lighting if you are trading into the evening.

  1. It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
  2. We check access to the pitch and send a price.
  3. On the day we set up under cover and get the hog on.
  4. We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
  5. We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.

How to prepare

  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival
  • Let us know about tight access
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
