Party hog roast in Hollington, carved to order
Throwing a party is hard work. With a hog roast, the food is sorted: we roast, carve, serve and clear. Whether it’s milestone birthdays and naming ceremonies, we’ll put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, a vegan burger or sausage and hog roast rolls and more.
Around Hollington, a garden with room to spare is all you need. It suits that kind of party. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Events we cater in Hollington
Children normally love it, with chicken as a backup.
A hog roast suits a wide range of occasions in Hollington. Typical bookings include:
- Big family get-togethers
- Engagement celebrations
- Christenings
- Leaving and retirement do’s
Parks such as Old Roar Gill and Coronation Wood generally need permission from the council or landowner for any cooking, so check first.
What your quote should include
- A clear list of what’s included
- VAT, if it applies
- Payment terms and cancellation policy
- When they arrive and when the food will be ready
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

Hollington: your questions answered
Can you cater after a service at St Anne?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can you roast near the sea around Hollington?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Do you need power or water?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
How much room do you need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Is a hog roast right for your party?
Compared with a restaurant booking, a hog roast at home lets everyone relax in the garden. A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Why Hollington hosts choose us
- Cooked on the day, low and slow

The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: golden, crunchy and salty.
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children generally like it too.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Think about children’s portions
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork for the alternatives
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
At food time, we carve and serve, then tidy up.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.
