Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
How the day works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Summer events in Pitch Green have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading typically finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
How to prepare
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Send final numbers in good time
