Hog roast hire for Brownbread Street
Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
You will not need to worry about the food on the day. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, then clear up.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Should I cook it myself?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
How it works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. Light matters for a long roast: around Brownbread Street, it stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- First, tell us about your event.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
