What else we do in Cote
The process
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. In late May, sunset in Cote is about 8:50pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:20pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We pack down and take our waste.
How to prepare
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Name a contact for the day

Working with your venue
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Planning for dietary needs
Some visitors won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
- Tell us if there is a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Balance the food line-up
- Make the stall easy to find
We work to your event plan, including vehicle times and pitch layout.

Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Who serves?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
