About our party hog roast in Frilsham

If you’d rather cook yourself, DIY machine hire is an option. Most people choose the catered option, and spend time with their guests. Popular choices include rotisserie chicken, apple sauce and crackling, and we’re regularly asked to cater anniversary parties and neighbourhood parties.

In a small place like Frilsham, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll plan the route. 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.

We set up in the agreed spot, so the party carries on around us.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Why choose a hog roast in Frilsham?

Compared with a buffet, a hog roast is hot and freshly carved. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.

What you get with us

  • No surprises: everything in writing
  • Carved to order by a chef
  • Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
  • Timed around your day

Take a look at how we price and our hog roast cost guide.

Catered or do it yourself?

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Working with your venue

Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.

What comes off the roaster

Rotisserie chicken

Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.

How we price a hog roast for your party

Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:

  • Which meats and sides you choose
  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Plates or china
  • Access to the cooking area

Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.

What we need to know

To check the date and the space, tell us:

  • Dietary requirements
  • Rough numbers
  • Any venue rules
  • The date and time of the event

Send us the date, the address or RG18 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Send us your details through our quote form.

  • Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
  • Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
  • Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
