Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Common questions in Totland
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Can you come to a school fair in Totland?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your event for a quote.
Can you come to a PTA fair?
Yes, with the school’s permission. Tell us the date and pitch.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
Step by step
Here’s how the day normally runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. At midsummer, events in Totland stay light until about 9:20pm, so evening trading typically finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 4:05pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Before we arrive
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Name a contact for the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Check other traders are not all selling pork
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
We clear the pitch and take everything away.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.
Space, access and the venue
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A safe distance from other traders
- Any paperwork the organisers need
- A queuing area
Totland is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we will plan the journey.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
