DIY versus a catered hog roast
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Party hog roast in Fickleshole, slow-roasted on site
Rolls are easy for party guests to eat standing up, and pork rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling are just that. Alternatives cover anyone who doesn’t eat pork. Typical bookings include christenings and leaving and retirement do’s, serving crackling, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce.
Near Fickleshole, parties are often in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will handle the rest. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Fickleshole
Can you do a hog roast in Addington Vale?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Leonard: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What do people get?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Can you cater in Fickleshole?
We do. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
How much room do you need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will confirm the space with your quote.
For planners, venues and organisers
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
Allergies and dietary needs
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then clear up the serving area.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
Why choose a hog roast in Fickleshole?
Instead of booking a restaurant, you keep the party at home, with room for everyone. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
What you get with us
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Timed around your day
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
