Book a hog roast in Goodworth Clatford
What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The number of people
- The date and time of year
- Distance from us
- Site access
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help
When you enquire, please mention:
- The date and time of the event
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Dietary requirements
- Any venue rules
We need a few details to quote: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Send us your details through our quote form.
Hog roast for events near Goodworth Clatford
Charity fundraisers in Goodworth Clatford can use a hog roast to draw people in. Tell us about the event and we’ll suggest how it could work. Typical bookings include community days and street fairs and country shows, with rotisserie chicken, apple sauce and crackling.
Rural events near Goodworth Clatford can be a long way from anywhere to eat, so a hog roast goes down well. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve.
Catered or do it yourself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some visitors will not eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Check other traders are not all selling pork
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
- Signpost the stall clearly
Name an organiser to meet us.
Coleslaw goes well with pork rolls.
What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we’ll plan the vegan burgers or sausages.
How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Goodworth Clatford are dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We roast on the pitch.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We clear up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
