Hog roast for events in Stoke Lyne, carved to order
Organisers need traders who turn up and serve well. We bring everything, roast on the pitch and leave it clean. On the menu are crackling, rotisserie chicken and a vegan burger or sausage, and typical bookings are for school events and vintage rallies.
A fête near Stoke Lyne might be on a field with no mains power; the roaster runs on gas, so that is fine. The hog is roasted on site at your event, low and slow, for hours.

Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Remember stuffing generally contains gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if you expect coeliac visitors
We serve as the queue moves.
Add rotisserie chicken for visitors who don’t eat pork.

Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
What the cooking area needs
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- Event approval for hot-food traders
- A level pitch with firm ground
- Any paperwork the organisers need
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
