How our hog roast for events works in Garsington
Organisers need traders who turn up and serve well. We bring everything, roast on the pitch and leave it clean. Typical bookings include PTA summer fairs and tournaments and sports days, serving a vegan burger or sausage, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken.
A fête near Garsington might be on a field with no mains power; we cook on gas, so we don’t need mains power. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

About the food
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: crisp, golden and full of flavour.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and it suits fussy eaters.
Before you choose a spot
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- A vehicle route onto the pitch
- The landowner’s or council’s agreement
- Clearance from other stalls and tents

Step by step
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. Summer events in Garsington have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:10pm by late September, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- 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
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Name a contact for the day
Getting a price
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or OX44 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Use our quote form.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a volunteer-run kitchen, we take the cooking off your volunteers. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What you get with us
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
