Slow-roasted pork in Hightown
Hog roast for events near Hightown
Festivals and shows run for hours, and a hog roast can serve through the day. Whether it’s agricultural and country shows and festivals, we will put together a menu of a vegan burger or sausage, crackling and rotisserie chicken for your visitors.
Near Hightown, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hog roast goes down well. The carving happens right in front of your visitors, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
For big events, ask us about the expected crowds early, so we can plan. Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why book with us
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Timed around your day

How the day works
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. For an autumn event in Hightown, sunset is around 7:10pm in late September, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early

Do you come out to small places like Hightown?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
