How it works
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Fern, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
Before we arrive
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Can you cater after a service at Church of St John the Baptist?

What meats can we have?
Add lamb or rotisserie chicken alongside the pork. There are vegetarian and vegan options as well.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
How does hog roast hire work?
We handle the roasting, carving and serving. Just give us an outdoor spot to cook.
How big a hog will we need?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we do not offer halal meat.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
Let us know if the day runs late: a cooked roast can be held for a while before carving.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, quoted separately.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
