How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. For an autumn event in Hardwick, sunset is around 7:05pm in late September, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- Tell us about the event.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We pack down and take our waste.
How to prepare
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Think about shelter for your visitors

- Permission for cooking on the site
- Access for our vehicle to the pitch
- A safe distance from other traders

- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
- Tell us if there is a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Make the stall easy to find
Tell us about ground conditions, particularly in wet weather.
Chicken widens the choice.

About the food
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, in a roll, with salad on the side.
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 will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
