How our party hog roast works in Leagreen
Throwing a party is hard work. A hog roast takes the food off your list: we cook, carve and serve. On the menu are jacket potatoes, hog roast rolls and crackling, and typical bookings are for garden parties and leaving and retirement do’s.
Country parties near Leagreen suit a hog roast: roasted all afternoon and carved on the lawn. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
How it works
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. For an evening party in Leagreen, think about light: daylight lasts until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late September it’s around 7:10pm. Lights by the food keep the party going.

Working with your venue

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Catered or do it yourself?

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.
