Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a barbecue stall, carving is faster than grilling to order. 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.
Why book with us
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Timed around your day
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Where the roaster can go in Worting
Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:
- Clearance from other stalls and tents
- Flat, firm ground for the roaster
- Access for our vehicle to the pitch

What we serve, dish by dish

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Tell us how many vegans to expect, and we’ll plan the vegan burgers or sausages.
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. Get that agreed before booking.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Step by step
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your visitors will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Worting are dark by about 4:00pm, so plan lights for the stall and the queue.
- It starts with your event date, site and expected numbers.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We set up early so the roast is ready when visitors arrive.
- We carve and serve through the agreed hours.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
Before we arrive
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Send final numbers in good time
