About our hog roast for events in Curridge
A hog roast is one of the most popular stalls at events in Curridge. We roast on the pitch through the day and carve rolls to order, keeping the queue moving. Popular choices include crackling, hog roast rolls and a vegan burger or sausage, and we’re regularly asked to cater club events and charity fundraisers.
Near Curridge, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hog roast goes down well. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.

Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Make the stall easy to find
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
Tell us about ground conditions, particularly in wet weather.
Chicken widens the choice.
A hog roast compared with other options
At large shows, ask us about the expected crowds early. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Why us?

Space, access and the venue
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Clearance from other stalls and tents
- Room for a queue that does not block paths
- A firm way on and off the field
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Working with your venue
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Prices and what affects them
Things that change the price:
- How many people are eating
- The journey to the venue
- Menu choices and extras
- Whether you want china
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Details that help
These are the details we need:
- An estimate of numbers
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- The date and time of the event
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so it’s easy to compare like for like. Fill in our quote form.
Step by step
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. In December, Curridge is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We clear up and go.
How to prepare
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates.
