How our hog roast for events works in Midgham Green
Shows and festivals last all day, and we serve through the agreed hours, carving as the queue grows. Typical bookings include community events and fundraising events, serving hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and crackling.
A fête near Midgham Green might be on a field with no mains power; the roaster runs on gas, so that is fine. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Tell us if there is a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Remember stuffing typically contains gluten
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Make the stall easy to find
If the ground is soft, we will need a firm route on and off, particularly in wet weather.
Add rotisserie chicken for visitors who do not eat pork.
Planning the cooking spot
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:
- Flat, firm ground for the roaster
- Event approval for hot-food traders
- Clearance from other stalls and tents
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
Popular choices
