DIY versus a catered hog roast

You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

A closer look at the menu
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: golden, crunchy and salty.
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll.
How it works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. The smell usually brings people over long before we carve. For an evening party in Bashley, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it’s around 7:10pm. Lights by the food keep the party going.

How we price a hog roast for your party
Each price is built from:
- How many people are eating
- Site access
- Crockery choices
- The serving time and how long we are on site
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
What we need to know
When you get in touch, please mention:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- What the outdoor space is like
- Rough numbers
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: fill in our quote form.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
Warn the neighbours: roasting takes hours and the smell travels, and they may ask for a roll.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
