How our hog roast hire works in Mountain Street
We roast the hog at your event, not in a kitchen miles away, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it is served. Add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options if you like. Whether it’s big birthdays and anniversaries and staff days and open days, we can cook hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and crackling.
Somewhere like Mountain Street, a yard or firm field frequently works. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Stuffing and apple sauce

A hog roast or other catering?
A hog roast has one downside: it is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too for anyone who does not eat it. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why Mountain Street hosts choose us
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- No surprises: everything in writing

Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
You will not need to worry about the food on the day. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

How it works
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your guests, with crackling for everyone who wants it. In Mountain Street, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the space and quote.
- We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We clear up and go.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
