Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian

- Stuffing normally contains gluten
We clear the pitch and take everything away.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
About our hog roast for events in Cothill
A hog roast is one of the most popular stalls at events in Cothill. We cook on site and carve to order, so visitors get hot food fast. Typical bookings include country shows and tournaments and sports days, serving hog roast rolls, crackling and a vegan burger or sausage.
At a field event near Cothill, power and water may be limited; we cook on gas, so we don’t need mains power. The carving happens right in front of your visitors, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

How we price a hog roast for your event
Your quote depends on:
- The date and time of year
- Whether you want china
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Which meats and sides you choose
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

How it works
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. Summer events in Cothill have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:10pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Getting ready for the day
