Looking after everyone
Some visitors will not eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Balance the food line-up
- Show allergens at the stall
We carve to order through the agreed hours.
Coleslaw goes well with pork rolls.
Hog roast for events in Upper Eashing, carved to order
At a fête, fair or festival in Upper Eashing, a hog roast stall draws a crowd. We roast on the pitch through the day and carve rolls to order, keeping the queue moving. Typical bookings include church and village fêtes and festivals, serving crackling, a vegan burger or sausage and halloumi skewers.
At a fête or show near Upper Eashing, a hog roast brings hot food to a rural site. Ground and access matter, so tell us about them. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you’re not left handing out rolls.
How it works
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. In December, Upper Eashing is dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We clear up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

For planners, venues and organisers
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

What comes off the roaster
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll, just as they should.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
We can serve in rolls or on plates, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
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.
