How our hog roast for events works in Slindon
Every event handles food differently: a package or a pay-as-you-go stall. Let us know what you have in mind. Typical bookings include fundraising events and community events, serving crackling, rotisserie chicken and a vegan burger or sausage.
At a fête or show near Slindon, we can cook in a field. Tell us about the ground and the way in. The carving happens right in front of your visitors, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

What happens on the day
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your visitors will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Summer events in Slindon have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Tell us about the event.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Send final numbers in good time
