A hog roast near Salden
How it works
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. Late-September events in Salden lose the light at about 7:05pm, so plan lighting if you are trading into the evening.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We roast on the pitch.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We clear up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Think about shelter for your visitors

About our hog roast for events in Salden
A hog roast fits a village fête perfectly: people follow their noses, and a roll is easy to eat on the move. For vintage rallies and tournaments and sports days, we will put together a menu of hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken and more.
At a field event near Salden, power and water may be limited; the roaster runs on gas, so that is fine. Timings are planned around your event, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

What we serve, dish by dish
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist.
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Check other traders are not all selling pork
At the end, we pack down and take our waste.
If your event has a theme, tell us.
