About our hog roast for events in Sherfield English
Every event handles food differently: a package or a pay-as-you-go stall. Tell us how you’d like it to work. Typical bookings include horse and dog shows and charity fundraisers, serving apple sauce, a vegan burger or sausage and crackling.
Rural events near Sherfield English can be a long way from anywhere to eat, so a hog roast goes down well. The hog is roasted on site at your event, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your visitors.
What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- Details of what the event requires
- Room for a queue that does not block paths
- Clearance from other stalls and tents
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

- How long the roast and service take

The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

How the day works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Sherfield English are dark by about 4:00pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve and serve through the agreed hours.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
How to prepare
- Let us know about tight access
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
