Party hog roast for Harmans Water
Should I cook it myself?

About our party hog roast in Harmans Water
A hog roast makes a party at home feel special. We roast on site in Harmans Water, then carve at the time you choose, so you’re not stuck in the kitchen. Typical bookings include christenings and reunions, serving a vegan burger or sausage, jacket potatoes and crackling.
Parties around Harmans Water are frequently relaxed garden affairs. A hog roast fits right in. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

How the day works
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Sunset in Harmans Water is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, so an early-evening carve is typically in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 3:55pm, need lights by the roaster.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We set up hours ahead.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Name a contact for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
