Hog roast for events for Upper Winchendon
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a barbecue stall, carving is faster than grilling to order. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why us?
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Carved by our chef in front of your visitors

The process
People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your visitors, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. In December, Upper Winchendon is dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
- We check the pitch and any paperwork, then quote.
- On the day we set up under cover and get the hog on.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
