Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Remember stuffing usually contains gluten
- Check other traders are not all selling pork
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Halal is not offered

Where the roaster can go in Easton

- Room for a queue that doesn’t block paths
- A level pitch
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

How the day works
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. In December, Easton is dark by about 4:00pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about shelter for your visitors
- Send final numbers in good time
- Have a level outdoor spot ready

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
