About our party hog roast in Folkington

In a small place like Folkington, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll handle the rest. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve.

- Clearance from walls, fences and overhanging branches
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
- Neighbours warned about the smell

Prices and what affects them
Things that change the price:
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The journey to the venue
- How many people are eating
Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- An estimate of numbers
- The address or postcode
- Any venue rules
- The date and when you’d like to eat
We need a few details to quote: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Fill in our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, 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
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Evening parties in Folkington need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:15pm at midsummer, but by late September it’s around 7:05pm. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.
- Send a photo of where the roaster could go.
- We confirm it works and send a quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- Our staff serve rolls and sides.
- We clear up so you do not have to.
How to prepare
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
