A hog roast near Anna Valley
Party hog roast in Anna Valley, slow-roasted on site
A party at home needs a little planning for the roaster: level ground outdoors, clear of the house and fences. We’ll help you choose. For back-garden get-togethers and getting-engaged parties, we will put together a menu of coleslaw, crackling and a vegan burger or sausage and more.
In a small place like Anna Valley, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will handle the rest. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.
Working with your venue
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Catered or do it yourself?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

What a hog roast costs
Each price is built from:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- How many people are eating
- Plates or china
- Time on site
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Details that help
To check the date and the space, we’ll need:
- A photo of the cooking area
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Dietary requirements
- The venue or postcode
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the party is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Think about children’s portions
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
We set up where we agreed and stay out of the way, so the party carries on around us.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.
The menu, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Why choose a hog roast in Anna Valley?
