Party hog roast in Catmore, carved to order
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 are ready, so you are not stuck in the kitchen. Whether it’s engagement celebrations and reunions, we will put together a menu of crackling, coleslaw and jacket potatoes and more.
A country party near Catmore is perfect for a hog roast: slow-roasted and eaten outside. Plan shelter in case it rains. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

For event organisers in Catmore
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.
Full catering or machine hire?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

- A spot well away from the house
