Party hog roast in Dinton
Party hog roast in Dinton, slow-roasted on site
A party at home needs a little planning for the roaster: level ground outdoors, clear of the house and fences. We’ll check it with you. Whether it’s christenings and naming days and retirement parties, we can cook hog roast rolls, apple sauce and a vegan burger or sausage and more.
A country party near Dinton 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.

The process
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can enjoy your party. At midsummer, it’s light in Dinton until about 9:25pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Before we arrive
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages

Working with your venue
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
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.
Allergies and dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours, and they may ask for a roll.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and there is a piece for everyone who wants it.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness are the traditional pairing. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
