DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
What happens on the day
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. Late-September events in Over Norton lose the light at about 7:10pm, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Think about shelter for your visitors
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
