Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
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 Boughton Corner
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:

- A safe distance from walls, tents and trees
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
