On the menu are coleslaw, new potatoes and spit-roast lamb, and typical bookings are for community events and weddings and receptions.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Full catering or machine hire? With catering we roast, carve and serve; with hire you do the cooking. Most hosts choose catering for anything bigger than a family party. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What you get with us
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Carved to order by a chef
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Planned to your running order

A closer look at the menu
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, so it stays hot and juicy.
Step by step
The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Late September evenings in Bury lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it is nearer 4:00pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
- At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Gather dietary requirements early
