- On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and start roasting.

What is hog roast hire?
We bring the roaster, roast the hog on site for hours, then our chef carves it and our staff serve, in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
