About our hog roast for events in Westhumble
A hog roast is one of the most popular stalls at events in Westhumble. We cook on site and carve to order, so visitors get hot food fast. We are frequently asked to cater car and steam shows and club events, with crackling, a vegan burger or sausage and rotisserie chicken.
At a field event near Westhumble, power and water may be limited; we cook on gas, so we do not need mains power. Our staff serve and clear, so you are not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.
What comes off the roaster
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Our vegan option is a vegan burger or sausage, served in a roll with salads.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll, just as they should.

Step by step
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Summer events in Westhumble have daylight until about 9:20pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading usually finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Share the date, site and expected crowds.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We roast on the pitch.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We tidy the pitch.
Getting ready for the day
- Think about shelter for your visitors
- Name a contact for the day

- Flat, firm ground for the roaster
- A queuing area
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.
