Party hog roast in Frinsted
What comes off the roaster
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
For vegans, there is a vegan burger or sausage in a roll, so everyone has something hot.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
How our party hog roast works in Frinsted
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. Whether it’s 18th, 21st, 40th, 50th and 60th birthdays and anniversary parties, we’ll put together a menu of coleslaw, jacket potatoes and rotisserie chicken.
Near Frinsted, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll handle the rest. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
Organising for someone else?
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

How the day works
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. In Frinsted, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:15pm, so an early-evening carve is normally in daylight. After about 3:50pm in December, we need light to carve.
- Show us the garden or drive.
- We confirm it works and send a quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- We serve when you’re ready.
- We leave the garden tidy.
Before we arrive
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Think about shelter for your guests

Frinsted questions
Is Frinsted too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
We are gathering after a service at St Giles: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Do you do DIY hire for parties?
Yes, DIY machine hire is available. We’ll talk you through it when we quote.
Is our garden suitable?
Frequently, yes, if there’s a level spot away from the house and trees, and a way to wheel the equipment through. Send us a picture.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a barbecue, no one gets stuck at the grill, and everyone eats together. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
