About our hog roast for events in Owlswick
Shows and festivals last all day, and a hog roast can serve through the day, carving as the queue grows. We serve a vegan burger or sausage, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for small festivals and agricultural and country shows.
Rural events near Owlswick can be a long way from anywhere to eat, so a hog roast is a welcome sight. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Full catering or machine hire?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Space, access and the venue
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- A queuing area
- A level pitch
- Clearance from other stalls and tents
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Organising for someone else?
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.

The process
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Late-May events in Owlswick have light until about 8:55pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:25pm. After dark, the stall needs lighting.
- Share the date, site and expected crowds.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We clear up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

Planning for dietary needs
Some visitors won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Make the stall easy to find
- Check other traders are not all selling pork
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
We work to your event plan, including vehicle times and pitch layout.
Add coleslaw.
What comes off the roaster
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, easy to eat standing up. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
