The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
For event organisers in Winford
If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
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’s ready when you want to eat. For an autumn event in Winford, sunset is around 7:10pm in late September, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- Organisers send us the event details.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- The roast starts before the gates open.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We leave the pitch clean.
How to prepare
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
