How our hog roast for events works in Newnham Murren
Every event handles food differently: a catered package paid by the organiser, or a stall selling to visitors. Tell us how you’d like it to work. We serve halloumi skewers, apple sauce and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for car shows and rallies and charity days.
A fête near Newnham Murren might be on a field with no mains power; the roaster runs on gas, so that’s fine. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat.

Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
