Should I cook it myself?
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
A hog roast compared with other options

How it works
When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. In December, Long Crendon is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
Preparing for the day

- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
