About our party hog roast in Beenham Stocks
A party hog roast turns a garden party into an occasion. We set up in your garden or on the drive, roast slowly for hours and carve when you’re ready, so you’re not stuck in the kitchen. On the menu are hog roast rolls, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce, and typical bookings are for retirement parties and big family get-togethers.
In a small place like Beenham Stocks, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll handle the rest. We plan the timings around your day, working back from when you want to eat.

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans

We get there early to start the roast, so it’s cooking when guests arrive.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
