Hog roast for events for Middleton
How it works
On the day, 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, Middleton is dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We tidy the pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Think about shelter for your visitors
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

A fête near Middleton might be on a field with no mains power; the roaster runs on gas, so that is fine. You’ll know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

Organising for someone else?

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a barbecue stall, carving is faster than grilling to order. For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Why Middleton hosts choose us
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- A choice of salads and potatoes

What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
