For planners, venues and organisers
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
Planning the cooking spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A level pitch with firm ground
- Clearance from other stalls and tents
- Any paperwork the organisers need
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
What we serve
- Coleslaw
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
- Rotisserie chicken
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Hog roast rolls
- Crackling
Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Halal isn’t offered
- Make the stall easy to find
- Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
If the ground is soft, we will need a firm route on and off, particularly in wet weather.
A vegan burger or sausage covers vegan visitors.
