Step by step
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Evening parties in Jarvis Brook need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:15pm at midsummer, but by late September it is around 7:05pm. Lights by the food keep the party going.

FAQs for Jarvis Brook
Can you cater after a service at St Michael & All Angels?
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 typically elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.

Do you need power or water?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
Can you do a hog roast in our back garden?

- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
