Planning for dietary needs

DIY versus a catered hog roast
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.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a barbecue stall, a hog roast serves quickly from one roast. Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why New Southgate hosts choose us
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit

The process
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Late-September events in New Southgate lose the light at about 7:05pm, so plan lighting if you are trading into the evening.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Name a contact for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
