About our hog roast for events in Oakleigh Park
Festivals and shows run for hours, and a hog roast can serve through the day, carving as the queue grows. We’re often asked to cater festivals and town and village days, serving crackling, hog roast rolls and apple sauce.
Street parties and school fairs in Oakleigh Park suit a hog roast stall. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Who books hog roast for events in Oakleigh Park?
We bring everything, so organisers have little to provide.
Whatever the occasion in Oakleigh Park, a hog roast feeds a crowd well. We are frequently asked to cater:
- Car and steam shows
- Agricultural and country shows
- Festivals
- Club events
Events in parks such as Swan Lane Open Space need permission from the council or landowner for cooking and vehicles.
Before you book anyone
- Where the roaster goes and what it needs
- How many staff will carve and serve
- Plates, china and cutlery
- How they handle allergens and dietary needs
Step by step
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. In December, Oakleigh Park is dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
How to prepare
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
Getting a price
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.

Prices and what affects them
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Distance from us
- Crockery choices
- Season and day of the week
For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Getting an accurate quote
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- The date and time of the event
- Where the event is
- A picture of the cooking area
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
