Party hog roast for Linwood
DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Party hog roast in Linwood, slow-roasted on site
Rolls are easy for party guests to eat standing up, and pork rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling are just that. Chicken and vegetarian options keep everyone happy. Typical bookings include wedding anniversaries and big birthday parties, serving jacket potatoes, a vegan burger or sausage and coleslaw.
A country party near Linwood is perfect for a hog roast: slow-roasted and eaten outside. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve.

The process
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Sunset in Linwood is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, so an early-evening carve is generally in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 4:05pm, need lights by the roaster.

A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a party buffet, hot carved pork feels more special, and nothing sits out all afternoon. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why us?
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
See our pricing or our hog roast cost guide.

- Somewhere dry for guests to eat
- A step-free way into the garden
