Should I cook it myself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Brimpton Common
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Nicholas?

Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat.

About the food

Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Add a dietary question to the invite
At food time, we carve and serve, then clear up the serving area.
Sides turn rolls into a proper party meal.

Other occasions in Brimpton Common
How it works
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. At midsummer, it is light in Brimpton Common until about 9:25pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:10pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Tell us about your party: date, address and numbers.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Before we arrive

Ask for a quote
The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the party is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Send us your details through our quote form.
