Hog roast for events in Staple, slow-roasted on site
Village fêtes around Staple suit a hog roast: people follow their noses, and a roll is easy to eat on the move. Whether it’s charity days and tournaments and sports days, we can cook rotisserie chicken, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers.
Rural events near Staple can be a long way from anywhere to eat, so a hog roast is a welcome sight. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish before you book.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Remember stuffing typically contains gluten
- Tell us if there is a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
We follow the organiser’s site rules, including when vehicles can move.
The vegan option is popular at festivals.

Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Before you choose a spot
Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:
- A firm way on and off the field
- A queuing area
- Flat, firm ground for the roaster
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to cold food, hot rolls are welcome whatever the weather. The main driver is numbers: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
