Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with cold food stalls, hot food is popular in any season. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Why Keynor Estate hosts choose us
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- No surprises: everything in writing
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Cooked on the day, low and slow

Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Tell us if there’s a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Signpost the stall clearly
- Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
We carve to order through the agreed hours.
Coleslaw goes well with pork rolls.
How the day works
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. Summer events in Keynor Estate have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading normally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 4:00pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Tell us about the event.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Getting ready for the day
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Let us know about tight access
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
