Common questions in Niton
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Can you come to a school fair in Niton?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
How much will it be?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
Is electricity needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so no mains power is needed to cook. A supply is useful for lights.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Tell us if there is a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
- Make the stall easy to find
We follow the organiser’s site rules, including when vehicles can move.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.

Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a volunteer-run kitchen, a professional hog roast frees up your helpers. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We serve to order through the event.
- We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare

- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
