Full catering or machine hire?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a barbecue stall, carving is faster than grilling to order. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why us?
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Sides to make it a full meal

Step by step
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your visitors will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Park Town are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Tell us about the event.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Before we arrive
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
