DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
How it works
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. In late May, sunset in Skittle Green is about 8:55pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:25pm. After dark, the stall needs lighting.
- Share the date, site and expected crowds.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We roast on the pitch.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We tidy the pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
