Hog roast for events near Perry
Festivals and shows run for hours, and we serve through the agreed hours. Whether it’s summer fêtes and school fairs and sports days, we can cook apple sauce, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken.
Near Perry, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hog roast goes down well. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
Space, access and the venue
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:
- Space for people to queue
- A safe distance from other traders
- Details of what the event requires
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
Popular choices
- Rotisserie chicken
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Crackling
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
- Hog roast rolls
- Coleslaw
How the day works
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your visitors will smell it long before they see it. Summer events in Perry have daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer and about 7:00pm by late September, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:50pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.

FAQs for Perry
Is Perry too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is Perry close to London?
Roughly 59 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come to Perry?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Perry and Kent. Send us the address for a quote.
What paperwork do you provide?
Send us your trader requirements, and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Should I cook it myself?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
