Near Boarhunt, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll handle the rest. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
Looking after everyone
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Think about children’s portions
- Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
We get there early to start the roast, so it is cooking when guests arrive.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
How the day works
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. Evening parties in Boarhunt need a little planning: it is light until about 9:20pm in June but only about 7:10pm in late September. Lights by the food keep the party going.
