How our hog roast for events works in Longworth

Shows and festivals last all day, and a hog roast can serve through the day. Typical bookings include country shows and fun runs and sports events, with rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and apple sauce.

Near Longworth, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hog roast goes down well. The carving happens right in front of your visitors, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Halal isn’t offered
  • Tell us what the event asks of traders
  • Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
  • Remember stuffing generally contains gluten

If the ground is soft, we’ll need a firm route on and off, particularly in wet weather.

Add rotisserie chicken for visitors who do not eat pork.

FAQs for Longworth

How far is Longworth from London?

About 59 miles from central London, and well within our area.

Do you trade at school fairs around Longworth?

Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Tell us the date and pitch details.

Where does the hog roast go?

A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.

Is mains power needed?

The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.

Can you help with a fundraiser?

Let us know your plans, and we’ll suggest a way to make it work.

How soon do you get booked up?

Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.

Can you be flexible on serving time?

Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

How much will it be?

Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.

What a hog roast costs

Your quote depends on:

  • Plates or china
  • The serving time and how long we are on site
  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • Season and day of the week

The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

Details that help

Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:

  • Roughly how many people
  • What the outdoor space is like
  • The venue or postcode
  • Any venue rules

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Send us your details through our quote form.

Full catering or machine hire?

If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Why choose a hog roast in Longworth?

Compared with burger vans, a hog roast feels more special at a traditional fête. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.

Why book with us

  • Planned to your running order
  • Fresh carving at the serving station
  • Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Roasted on site, slowly, for hours

See how we price and our hog roast cost guide.

How the day works

Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Late-September events in Longworth lose the light at about 7:10pm, so plan lighting if you are trading into the evening.

  1. Share the date, site and expected crowds.
  2. We discuss the package or stall options.
  3. We arrive and set up under cover.
  4. Carving keeps the queue moving.
  5. We clear up and go.

How to prepare

  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Send final numbers in good time
  • Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Ask for a quote

It is easy to get a price: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.
