About our party hog roast in Goldsworth Park
If you’d rather cook yourself, DIY machine hire is an option. Most hosts prefer us to do it, and spend time with their guests. Popular choices include a vegan burger or sausage, crackling and apple sauce, and typical bookings are for summer parties in the garden and engagement celebrations.
For a party in Goldsworth Park, home is often the best venue. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we will do the rest. The hog is roasted on site at your party, low and slow, for hours.
Before you choose a spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A wet-weather plan for guests
- A step-free way into the garden
- Neighbours warned about the smell
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Planners, venues and businesses
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
Ensure the gate or side passage is open when we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.

Catered or do it yourself?

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side

- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
