How our party hog roast works in Avon Castle
For a christening or naming day in Avon Castle, a hog roast in the garden feeds the whole family, without anyone stuck cooking. Typical bookings include milestone birthdays and summer parties in the garden, with jacket potatoes, crackling and apple sauce.
Near Avon Castle, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we will plan the route. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
Full catering or machine hire?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.

Is Avon Castle too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
How much does a hog roast cost?
