DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.

How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Do you provide china?
Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.

We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.

The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Put the menu on the invitation
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so you only need to provide the space.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for anyone who needs them.
What comes off the roaster

The process
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: in Farnborough, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 4:00pm.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear 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.
How to prepare
