Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Travel to Yarmouth
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Whether you want china
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

Rolls and stuffing typically contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Halal isn’t offered
- Check other traders aren’t all selling pork
- Remember stuffing typically contains gluten
- Show allergens at the stall
We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting, timed for the gates opening.
Chicken widens the choice.
Where the roaster can go in Yarmouth
