How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. For an autumn event in Horsell, sunset is around 7:05pm in late September, so evening trading needs lights.

- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Before we arrive

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a barbecue stall, carving is faster than grilling to order. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why Horsell hosts choose us
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Planned to your running order
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Carved by our chef in front of your visitors
See our prices page or the cost guide.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:
- The journey to the venue
- How long the roast and service take
- How many people are eating
- Plates or china
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
