Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
Details that help

- Your menu choices

Common questions in North Crawley
Is North Crawley too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you trade at school fairs around North Crawley?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
Is it pay as you go?
That depends on the event. Let us know how you’d like it to work and we will talk it through.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
What about visitors who don’t eat pork?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.

Should I cook it myself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
- Halal is not offered
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
We get to the pitch early, timed for the gates opening.
Add coleslaw.
For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.

How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. For an autumn event in North Crawley, sunset is around 7:05pm in late September, so evening trading needs lights.
- Share the date, site and expected crowds.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We roast on the pitch.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We clear up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Name a contact for the day
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
