DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Step by step
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. Summer events in Heath Park have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading typically finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:50pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We serve to order through the event.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

Your questions about a hog roast for your event in Heath Park
Can you do a hog roast in Haynes Park?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What if our house in Heath Park has no side access?
Often, if there is a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Can you do a school fair?
We do. Ask the school about vehicles on site.
What do you need from the organiser?
The roaster runs on gas, so no mains power is needed to cook. A supply is useful for lights.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
What we serve, dish by dish

Working with your venue
