How our hog roast for events works in Westbourne
For a school fair, you want food families will queue for. Pork rolls, chicken and a vegan option cover most visitors. Whether it is school fairs and sports days and agricultural and country shows, we can cook halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and a vegan burger or sausage.
In Westbourne, street events mean planning closures and access. Tell us the pitch details and timings. Timings are planned around your event, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

The process
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. In late May, sunset in Westbourne is about 8:55pm, while at midsummer it’s about 9:20pm. After dark, the stall needs lighting.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- You get a check on the date and pitch, and a quote.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve rolls to order as the queue moves.
- We pack up and leave the pitch tidy.

At the end, we pack down and take our waste.
If your event has a theme, tell us.
