A hog roast makes a party at home feel special. We roast on site in Graffham, then carve at the time you choose, so you’re not stuck in the kitchen. Whether it is christenings and naming days and getting-engaged parties, we can cook a vegan burger or sausage, coleslaw and apple sauce for your guests.

Common questions in Graffham
Do you come out to small places like Graffham?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
We are gathering after a service at The Parish Church of St Giles: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not something we offer.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
What should we sort out beforehand?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.
The process
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. Sunset in Graffham is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so an early-evening carve is usually in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 4:00pm, need lights by the roaster.
- Send a photo of where the roaster could go.
- We check the space and quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- We serve when you are ready.
- We clear up so you do not have to.
Getting ready for the day
