How the day works
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your visitors will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In late May, sunset in Stuppington is about 8:45pm, and midsummer ones until about 9:15pm. After dark, the stall needs lighting.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about shelter for your visitors
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
A hog roast alongside cakes and teas gives visitors a good choice. The main driver is numbers: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
What you get with us
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Our staff serve and clear
- Fresh carving at the serving station
See our pricing or our hog roast cost guide.
For planners, venues and organisers
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.

Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
What we serve, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
