Step by step
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. Summer events in De Beauvoir Town have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We serve to order through the event.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
Preparing for the day
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Send final numbers in good time
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

Planning help
Should I cook it myself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Check other traders aren’t all selling pork
We work to your event plan, including vehicle times and pitch layout.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
