Book a hog roast in Creekmouth
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat. At midsummer, events in Creekmouth stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:50pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- You get a check on the date and pitch, and a quote.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We carve and serve through the agreed hours.
- We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Can you do a hog roast in Abbey Wood Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
