How it works
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, with the sides served alongside. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Late September evenings in Enslow lose the light at about 7:10pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

A hog roast or other catering?
A hog roast has one downside: it’s pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why book our hog roast in Enslow
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Planned to your running order
See our pricing or the cost guide.
Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness are the traditional pairing. Stuffing normally contains gluten.

What affects the price in Enslow
Your quote depends on:
- Crockery choices
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- The journey to the venue
- How long the roast and service take
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Details that help
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- Where the event is
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Rules from the venue or landowner
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the event is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal, and they’re listed in your quote.
