Hog roast for events near Hedgerley Green
School fairs and sports days need food that families like. There are options for most visitors. We serve hog roast rolls, apple sauce and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for tournaments and sports days and food and music festivals.
Near Hedgerley Green, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hog roast is a welcome sight. The carving happens right in front of your visitors, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
Organising for someone else?
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, 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 you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
