Slow-roasted pork in Firgo
About our party hog roast in Firgo
Hosting a party means juggling everything at once. With a hog roast, the food is sorted: we roast, carve, serve and clear. For back-garden get-togethers and leaving and retirement do’s, we can cook rotisserie chicken, jacket potatoes and hog roast rolls for your guests.
Near Firgo, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we’ll handle the rest. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
Full catering or machine hire?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

About the food
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Think about children’s portions
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
At food time, we carve and serve, then tidy up.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
What the cooking area needs
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
- A heads-up for next door
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

What’s the nearest station to Firgo?
The closest is Whitchurch (Hampshire) station, roughly 2.4 miles away.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.

Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
Is our garden suitable?
Describe the space and the way in, and we will tell you if it works.
What affects the price in Firgo
There’s no fixed price list, because every party is different. What matters most:
- The journey to the venue
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Site access
- Menu choices and extras
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What we need to know
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- What the outdoor space is like
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Your menu choices
- Rough numbers
We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Tell us about your party for a quote: use our quote form.
What happens on the day
The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook. Evening parties in Firgo need a little planning: it’s light until about 9:25pm in June but only about 7:10pm in late September. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.
- Show us the garden or drive.
- We check the space and quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- We serve when you’re ready.
- We clear up so you don’t have to.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
