For event organisers in Wexham Street
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Step by step
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Summer events in Wexham Street have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. Winter fairs, dark by about 3:55pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We pack down and take our waste.
Before we arrive
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
