For event organisers in Crossbush
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Catered or do it yourself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Step by step
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. In Crossbush, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so an early-evening carve is typically in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 4:00pm, need lights by the roaster.

Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled

- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
A cooked roast holds for a while, so tell us if timings change.
Sides turn rolls into a proper party meal.

Christenings and naming days frequently start at a local church such as The Parish Church of St Mary Magdalen, with a hog roast at home or in a hall afterwards. Among the historic houses close to Crossbush are Ecclesden Manor (3 miles east). For most parties, a garden or hall is easier than a historic venue with strict catering rules.

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Crossbush
Can you cater after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary Magdalen?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Is Crossbush too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
How long does the roast need?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
How do we prepare?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.
Is our garden suitable?
Describe the space and the way in, and we will tell you if it works.
What about the neighbours?
A friendly word helps: the roast cooks for hours and the smell travels. They may want a roll.
