Why choose a hog roast in Hatford?
Next to a burger van, a hog roast feels more special. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why book with us
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- Timed around your day

A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.

Before booking anyone
- What the cooking area needs: space, cover and access
- What crockery is supplied
- Who carves and who serves
- The menu, including sides and any extras
Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Prices and what affects them
We work out each quote from:
- Numbers
- Site access
- Distance from us
- Crockery choices
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- Your date and serving time
- Anything the venue has asked for
- What the outdoor space is like
- Any dietary needs or allergies
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so it is easy to compare like for like. Send us your details through our quote form.
How the day works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Hatford are dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- You get a check on the date and pitch, and a quote.
- On the day we set up under cover and get the hog on.
- We carve and serve through the agreed hours.
- We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
