The menu, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, and it’s carved the same way, frequently with mint sauce.
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and our chef carves it to order.
Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
We’ll agree a contact for the day, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

How the day works
When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. Around midsummer it stays light in Fernhurst until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We look at the cooking area and send a price.
- We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve.
- We pack away and leave you to it.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone, so nobody stands at a grill all afternoon. Our guide compares the two. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
