DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
A closer look at the menu
Rotisserie chicken
Golden rotisserie chicken goes into rolls or onto plates.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
