Why choose a hog roast in Mugswell?
One hog roast and a couple of other stalls gives visitors a good choice. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
What you get with us
- Sides to make it a full meal
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
Prices and what affects them
The biggest factors are:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- How many people are eating
- Whether you want china
- The journey to the venue
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups generally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.

A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
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.
Mugswell questions
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Mugswell?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Do you trade at school fairs around Mugswell?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
Can you cater in Mugswell?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send us your trader requirements, and we’ll tell you what we can send.
What about visitors who don’t eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
How much room do you need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will confirm the space with your quote.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Step by step
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Summer events in Mugswell have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
