Around Hog Hatch, a garden with room to spare is all you need. A hog roast fits right in. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

What happens on the day

FAQs for Hog Hatch
Could you cook in Weybourne LNR?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Can you cater after a service at St Mark the Evangelist Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Can we cook it ourselves?
Yes, DIY machine hire is available. We’ll talk you through it when we quote.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
What space does the roaster need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a party buffet, hot carved pork feels more special, and nothing sits out all afternoon. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
What you get with us
- All the equipment comes with us
