Full catering or machine hire?

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

What we serve, dish by dish

Roast pork

Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.

Crackling

Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

Why choose a hog roast in Newpound Common?

Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. A buffet can sit out all afternoon. For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

What you get with us

  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
  • Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
  • Staff to serve, so you do not have to
  • Carved by our chef in front of your guests

How the day works

The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Newpound Common, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We look at the cooking area and send a price.
  3. We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
  4. The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
  5. We clear up and go.

Before we arrive

  • Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Think about shelter for your guests
