Prices and what affects them
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Season and day of the week
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Numbers
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Party hog roast in Fleeden, carved to order
In Fleeden, a hog roast is a favourite for birthdays and garden parties: hearty food that feeds everyone at once. We serve and tidy up. For engagement celebrations and garden parties, we can cook apple sauce, a vegan burger or sausage and rotisserie chicken for your guests.
Country parties near Fleeden suit a hog roast: slow-roasted and eaten outside. Plan shelter in case it rains. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.
About the food
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Full catering or machine hire?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

How the day works
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. A summer party in Fleeden stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:00pm; add lights for the evening.

For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
We set up where we agreed and stay out of the way, leaving the garden to you and your guests.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
