How the day works
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Summer events in Winchfield have daylight until about 9:25pm 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.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We confirm the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We serve as visitors arrive.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Preparing for the day
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand

DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.

What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, roasted until golden.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.
For event organisers in Winchfield
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

- Halal isn’t offered
