How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.

What about the neighbours?
Give them a heads-up.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

What comes off the roaster
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Our vegan option is a vegan burger or sausage, served in a roll with salads.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a barbecue, no one gets stuck at the grill, and the food is ready for everyone at once. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
