Hog roast for events in Satmar, carved to order
Festivals and shows run for hours, and we serve through the agreed hours, carving as the queue grows. We’re frequently asked to cater community events and car and steam shows, serving rotisserie chicken, hog roast rolls and a vegan burger or sausage.
Near Satmar, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hog roast goes down well. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
For planners, venues and organisers
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
What we serve, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, with gluten-free rolls on request.
Common questions in Satmar
Do you cater at venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Can you come to a school fair in Satmar?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
Do you do fêtes?
A hog roast suits a fête perfectly. Contact us.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What will our event need from you?
Requirements vary. Let us know what you need.
How far ahead should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
How much room do you need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Do we need our own staff?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Access to the cooking area
- Crockery choices
- Numbers
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Your menu choices
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so it is easy to compare like for like. Send us your details through our quote form.
Full catering or machine hire?
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.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
What happens on the day
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Summer events in Satmar have daylight until about 9:15pm at midsummer and about 7:00pm by late September, which helps evening trading. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:50pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We roast on the pitch.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We tidy the pitch.

- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
We clear the pitch and take everything away.
Add rotisserie chicken for visitors who do not eat pork.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
