For planners, venues and organisers

If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Hog roast for events in Woodrow, carved to order
A hog roast is one of the most popular stalls at events in Woodrow. We roast on the pitch through the day and carve rolls to order, keeping the queue moving. We are frequently asked to cater food and music festivals and school fairs and sports days, with hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and apple sauce.
Rural events near Woodrow can be a long way from anywhere to eat, so a hog roast goes down well. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

About the food

Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we’ll bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.

Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing normally contains gluten.
What a hog roast costs
There is no fixed price list, because every event is different. The main factors are:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Travel to Woodrow
- Plates or china
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

How the day works
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power. In December, Woodrow is dark by about 3:55pm, so the pitch needs good lighting and a clear route for the queue.
- Start with the date and numbers.
- We discuss the package or stall options.
- We arrive and set up under cover.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We tidy the pitch.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
Getting a price
Send us the date, the address or HP7 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Use our quote form.
