DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing usually contains gluten.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour.
Organising for someone else?
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.
How we price a hog roast for your party
We work out each quote from:
- How long the roast and service take
- Travel to Bagshot
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- How many people are eating
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Roughly how many people
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Your menu choices
- What the outdoor space is like
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or GU19 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Fill in our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Think about children’s portions
Warn the neighbours: roasting takes hours and the smell travels, and they may ask for a roll.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.
What the cooking area needs
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
- A spot well away from the house
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
