What happens on the day

Your timings come first. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Highmoor are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.

  1. Organisers send us the event details.
  2. We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
  3. We set up early on the pitch.
  4. We serve as visitors arrive.
  5. We pack down and take our waste.

How to prepare

  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages

Planning help

Catered or do it yourself?

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Prices and what affects them

Here’s what affects the price:

  • Crockery choices
  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Distance from us

The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

Details that help

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • Your menu choices
  • Allergies we should know about
  • Where the event is
  • Any venue rules

Not sure how many to cater for? Give us your best estimate and we will quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Use our quote form.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
  • Remember stuffing typically contains gluten
  • Make the stall easy to find
  • Put the menu and allergen information on display

We clear the pitch and take everything away.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Is a hog roast right for your event?

Next to volunteers cooking, a professional hog roast frees up your helpers. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

Why Highmoor hosts choose us

  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
  • Our staff serve and clear
  • Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
  • Sides to make it a full meal
