Should I cook it myself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Huntercombe
Can you do a hog roast in Haymill Valley?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you cater after a service at St. Andrew's Shared Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will fit around changes.
Who serves?
You don’t need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
What should we sort out beforehand?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We’ll bring the rest.
Will you clear up afterwards?
We tidy the serving area.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
