About our party hog roast in Cadnam
A hog roast makes a party at home feel special. We set up in your garden or on the drive, roast slowly for hours and carve when you’re ready, so you are not stuck in the kitchen. We’re frequently asked to cater ruby, golden and diamond anniversaries and retirement parties, serving hog roast rolls, coleslaw and rotisserie chicken.
Near Cadnam, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we’ll handle the rest. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.
A hog roast or other catering?
DIY or catered? DIY hire works for relaxed get-togethers; catering suits bigger or more important parties. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Why Cadnam hosts choose us
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Our staff serve and clear
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- A choice of salads and potatoes
