What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Late-May events in New Eltham have light until about 8:50pm, while at midsummer it is about 9:20pm. Evening festivals need lighting by the stall after that.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
One hog roast and a couple of other stalls makes a good food line-up. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

- No surprises: everything in writing
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit

For planners, venues and organisers
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Catered or do it yourself?
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.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
