Hog roast for events in North Camp, carved to order
A hog roast is one of the most popular stalls at events in North Camp. We roast on the pitch through the day and carve rolls to order, so visitors get hot food fast. For car and steam shows and festivals, we can cook apple sauce, rotisserie chicken and a vegan burger or sausage and more.
Around North Camp, a fête or summer fair suits a hog roast. Tell us about the pitch, ground and access. Timings are planned around your event, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
- Show allergens at the stall
- Balance the food line-up
- Make the stall easy to find
We work to your event plan, including vehicle times and pitch layout.
Add coleslaw.
The process
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in North Camp are dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- Tell us about the event.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Think about shelter for your visitors
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
One hog roast and a couple of other stalls gives visitors a good choice. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why North Camp hosts choose us
- Served at the time you choose
- Carved by our chef in front of your visitors
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
