Party hog roast in Highstreet
Party hog roast in Highstreet, carved to order
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 does not eat pork. For getting-engaged parties and neighbourhood parties, we can cook coleslaw, hog roast rolls and apple sauce.
Near Highstreet, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Plates or china
- The date and time of year
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- The venue or postcode

What happens on the day
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. For an evening party in Highstreet, think about light: it is light until about 9:15pm in June but only about 7:00pm in late September. Lights by the food keep the party going.

- We check the space and send a clear quote.
- We arrive in good time and start roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve when you’re ready.

Preparing for the day

You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing generally contains gluten
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.
