Party hog roast in Durrington, carved to order
A big birthday deserves a centrepiece, and a whole hog roasting in the garden is exactly that. Your guests will smell it from the street. We’re often asked to cater wedding anniversaries and summer parties in the garden, serving apple sauce, crackling and jacket potatoes.
Around Durrington, a garden with room to spare is all you need. It suits that kind of party. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
How the day works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking does not depend on mains power. At midsummer, it’s light in Durrington until about 9:20pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- It starts with the date, the address and a rough guest list.
- We check the space and send a clear quote.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve when you are ready.
- Afterwards we tidy up the serving area.
Before we arrive
