Hog roast for events near Hambrook

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Check other traders aren’t all selling pork
- Halal isn’t offered
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Signpost the stall clearly
Tell us about ground conditions, especially after rain.
The vegan option is popular at festivals.
Catered or do it yourself?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Next to a barbecue stall, carving is faster than grilling to order. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you are paying for.

The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
For visitors who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, and served hot.
What happens on the day
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. In December, Hambrook is dark by about 4:00pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- 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.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
