Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
- Halal is not offered
At the end, we pack down and take our waste.
The vegan option is popular at festivals.
What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Event approval for hot-food traders
- Space for people to queue
- Flat, firm ground for the roaster
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
What we serve
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Crackling
- Coleslaw
- Rotisserie chicken
- Hog roast rolls
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a barbecue stall, carving is faster than grilling to order. The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why us?
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Planned to your running order
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Preparing for the day

Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we will quote.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Should I cook it myself?
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Working with your venue
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We will fit in with site rules.
