Hog roast for events in Locksgreen, slow-roasted on site
For organisers, one reliable hot-food trader makes life easier. We bring everything, roast on the pitch and leave it clean. For club events and horse and dog shows, we can cook halloumi skewers, crackling and a vegan burger or sausage and more.
A fête near Locksgreen might be on a field with no mains power; the roaster runs on gas, so that’s fine. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish before booking.

Locksgreen questions
Do you come out to small places like Locksgreen?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Do you trade at school events?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Tell us the date and pitch.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Is mains power needed?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Can you work around our timings?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan visitors can have a vegan burger or sausage, so everyone has something hot.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Tell us if there’s a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Remember stuffing usually contains gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Signpost the stall clearly
We get to the pitch early, timed for the gates opening.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.
How it works
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. At midsummer, events in Locksgreen stay light until about 9:20pm, which helps evening trading. 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.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Let us know about tight access
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
Getting a price
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: use our quote form.
