The price comes down to:

- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Distance from us
- Whether you want china
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Hog roast for events near Pyrford
Every event handles food differently: a catered package paid by the organiser, or a stall selling to visitors. Tell us how you’d like it to work. We are frequently asked to cater agricultural and country shows and community days and street fairs, with hog roast rolls, a vegan burger or sausage and crackling.
Summer fairs around Pyrford are often run by volunteers, so a trader who brings everything is a bonus. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
The process
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. For an autumn event in Pyrford, sunset is around 7:05pm in late September, so plan lighting if you are trading into the evening.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We tidy the pitch.
Before we arrive
- Think about shelter for your visitors
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Name a contact for the day

Full catering or machine hire?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour.
