The menu, dish by dish
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
A cooked roast holds for a while, so just let us know.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a party buffet, a hog roast is hot and freshly carved, and nothing sits out all afternoon. The main driver is numbers: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

Catered or do it yourself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

The process
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. For an evening party in Holloway Down, think about light: it’s light until about 9:20pm in June but only about 7:05pm in late September. Lights by the food keep the party going.
- Send us your party date, address, numbers and serving time.

For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
