Looking after everyone

Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:

  • Think about children’s portions
  • Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
  • Collect dietary needs when guests reply
  • Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed

We get there early to start the roast, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.

Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.

Is a hog roast right for your party?

Next to a party buffet, a hog roast is hot and freshly carved, and nothing sits out all afternoon. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

Why Barford St Michael hosts choose us

  • All the equipment comes with us
  • Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
  • Serving and clearing done for you

Read our pricing or the cost guide.

Full catering or machine hire?

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
