Cooking is gas-fired. A supply is useful for lights.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
One hog roast and a couple of other stalls gives visitors a good choice. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What you get with us
- Carved by our chef in front of your visitors
- Sides to make it a full meal
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to

Full catering or machine hire?
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.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
