Planners, venues and businesses
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a barbecue stall, a hog roast serves quickly from one roast. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

Roughly 52 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.

When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
The process
Your timings come first. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. Late-May events in Guestling Green have light until about 8:45pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:15pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.
- Share the date, site and expected crowds.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We roast on the pitch.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We tidy the pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- The landowner’s or council’s agreement
- Clearance from other stalls and tents
- A vehicle route onto the pitch
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
What we serve
- Rotisserie chicken
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Crackling

Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Check other traders aren’t all selling pork
- Make the stall easy to find
We serve as the queue moves.
Tell us about any theme, such as a vintage fête.
