Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
We work to your event plan, including when vehicles can move.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.
The process
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. At midsummer, events in Mill Corner stay light until about 9:15pm, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Tell us about the event.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Preparing for the day
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages

Questions from Mill Corner
Which station is closest to Mill Corner?
Doleham station, about 4.3 miles south of the centre.
Is Mill Corner too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
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.
Who serves?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A picture helps.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.
Full catering or machine hire?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
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.
What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A level pitch
- Any paperwork the organisers need
- Clearance from other stalls and tents
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
