Full catering or machine hire?
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.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Hog roast for events in Pixham, carved to order
For organisers, one reliable hot-food trader makes life easier. We bring everything, roast on the pitch and leave it clean. We’re often asked to cater fun runs and sports events and car and steam shows, with rotisserie chicken, apple sauce and a vegan burger or sausage.
For a village fête or field event near Pixham, we can cook in a field. Ground and access matter, so tell us about them. Timings are planned around your event, working back from when you want to eat.

Pixham questions
How far is Pixham from London?
Roughly 20 miles from the centre of London.
Can you do a hog roast in Deepdene Terrace?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Is electricity needed?
Cooking is gas-fired. A supply is useful for lights.
What about visitors who do not eat pork?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Can a hog roast raise money?
We are happy to talk it through and we’ll see what’s possible.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
