DIY versus a catered hog roast
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
If timings shift, tell us: a cooked roast can be held for a while before carving.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.
Planners, venues and businesses
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Planning the cooking spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
- Permission from the venue or landowner
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Full catering or machine hire? Catering means we do everything; DIY hire means you roast and carve yourself. Most hosts choose catering for anything bigger than a family party. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.

- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
