A hog roast near Crampmoor
About our party hog roast in Crampmoor
A party at home needs a little planning for the roaster: a level spot away from the house and trees, under cover. We’ll check it with you. For summer parties in the garden and reunions, we can cook apple sauce, a vegan burger or sausage and crackling and more.
A country party near Crampmoor is perfect for a hog roast: slow-roasted and eaten outside. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
What happens on the day
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. In Crampmoor, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 4:00pm in December, we need light to carve.

Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:

- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Let us know roughly how many children
Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then tidy up.
