How it works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. For an autumn event in Finstock, sunset is around 7:10pm in late September, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
How to prepare
- Think about shelter for your visitors
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

Should I cook it myself?

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
