What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and there is a piece for everyone who wants it.
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Check other traders are not all selling pork
- Make the stall easy to find
- Tell us if there’s a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Remember stuffing typically contains gluten
At the end, we pack down and take our waste.
Chicken widens the choice.
Common questions in Leagreen
Do you come out to small places like Leagreen?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.

What happens after service?

Is there a non-pork option?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat.

How it works
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. The smell generally brings people over long before we carve. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Leagreen are dark by about 4:05pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We leave the pitch clean.
How to prepare

Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with cold food stalls, hot food is popular in any season. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups typically cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
