Hog roast for events near Jericho
For organisers, one reliable hot-food trader makes life easier. We are self-contained and leave the pitch tidy. On the menu are rotisserie chicken, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers, and we’re regularly asked to cater horse and dog shows and church and village fêtes.
Around Jericho, a fête or summer fair suits a hog roast. Send us the pitch and access details. Our chef carves in front of your visitors, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Travel to Jericho
- Menu choices and extras
- Time on site
- Whether you want china
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What we need to know
To get the best quote, send us:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Roughly how many people
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
Every event is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your event for a quote: send us your details through our quote form.
Catered or do it yourself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

Working with your venue
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Step by step
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Late-May events in Jericho have light until about 9:00pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:25pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.
- Share the date, site and expected crowds.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We clear up and go.
Before we arrive
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

What comes off the roaster
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, with gluten-free rolls on request.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
At large shows, tell us expected numbers, so we can plan. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why book with us
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Our staff serve and clear

- Carved to order by a chef
