DIY versus a catered hog roast
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.
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.
For planners, venues and organisers
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Questions from Kingston Bagpuize
Can you cater after a service at Church of St John the Baptist?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
How far is Kingston Bagpuize from London?
Roughly 58 miles from the centre of London.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We do not provide halal meat.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Generally, yes, so we can plan quantities.
Can we cook it ourselves?
If you are happy to roast and carve, yes. Most people prefer us to cook so they can enjoy the party.
What do you need from us on the day?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We’ll bring the rest.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
Will a hog roast fit in our garden?
Most gardens can work, given access for the equipment. Send us a picture.
Allergies and dietary needs
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours, and they may ask for a roll.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.
Before you choose a spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:
- Somewhere for us to park nearby
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
- A step-free way into the garden
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

How it works
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Autumn parties in Kingston Bagpuize get dark early: about 7:10pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. Light the garden path and the serving area.
- Show us the garden or drive.
- We check the space and quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- Our staff serve rolls and sides.
- We clear up so you do not have to.
