Full catering or machine hire?

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.

Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

What we serve, dish by dish

Stuffing and apple sauce

Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.

Roast pork

Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and our chef carves it to order.

Looking after everyone

A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:

  • Put the menu and allergen information on display
  • Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
  • Tell us if there’s a vegetarian or vegan focus
  • Halal isn’t offered

We work to your event plan, including when vehicles can move.

Ask about gluten-free rolls.

Prices and what affects them

Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • The serving time and how long we’re on site
  • The journey to the venue
  • Menu choices and extras
  • Whether you want china

For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Details that help

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:

  • Any venue rules
  • Allergies we should know about
  • Your menu choices
  • Your date and serving time

Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Send us your date for a quote: fill in our quote form.

How it works

The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In December, Sulhamstead Abbots is dark by about 4:00pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.

  1. Share the date, site and expected crowds.
  2. We agree how food will be paid for.
  3. We arrive and set up under cover.
  4. Carving keeps the queue moving.
  5. We clear up and go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
  • Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

Ask for a quote
