How the day works
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. In Eastbury, late May sunsets come at about 9:00pm and midsummer ones at about 9:25pm, so an early-evening carve is usually in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 4:00pm, need lights by the roaster.
- It starts with the date, the address and a rough guest list.
- You get a check on the date and the cooking spot, and a quote.
- We arrive in good time and start roasting.
- When it is time to eat, the chef carves and we serve.
- Afterwards we tidy up the serving area.
How to prepare
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Name a contact for the day

Party hog roast near Eastbury
Throwing a party is hard work. With a hog roast, the food is sorted: we roast, carve, serve and clear. Popular choices include a vegan burger or sausage, apple sauce and hog roast rolls, and we’re regularly asked to cater garden parties and big family get-togethers.
In a small place like Eastbury, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. You’ll know what’s included before booking: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

A hog roast or other catering?
Hire the machine or book catering? DIY suits confident cooks and relaxed parties; catering suits bigger or more important parties. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
What you get with us
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Our staff serve and clear
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children generally like it too.
Eastbury parties: what to know

The North Wessex Downs National Landscape is within about 2 miles of Eastbury, so a garden party here comes with a lovely backdrop.
We bring hog roasts to parties all over RG17.

Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
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.
Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Eastbury
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Is Eastbury 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.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We do not provide halal meat.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
Catered or do it yourself?
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.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
What the cooking area needs
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
- Space for our vehicle near the drive
- A word with the neighbours
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
