Why choose a hog roast in Padbury?

Compared with burger vans, a hog roast feels more special at a traditional fête. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.

Why us?

  • Choices for people who do not eat pork
  • The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Staff to serve, so you do not have to
  • A clear quote with everything listed

See our pricing or the cost guide.

The process

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and get on with roasting and serving. Summer events in Padbury have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:10pm by late September, which helps evening trading. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.

  1. Start with the date and numbers.
  2. We discuss the package or stall options.
  3. We arrive and set up under cover.
  4. Carving keeps the queue moving.
  5. We clear up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
  • Have a level outdoor spot ready

How to compare hog roast caterers

Should I cook it myself?

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Space, access and the venue

A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:

  • A level pitch with firm ground
  • Space for people to queue
  • Access for our vehicle to the pitch

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

From the roaster

  • Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
  • Halloumi skewers (V)
