How the day works

The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. In Little Horsted, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:15pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 3:55pm, need lights by the roaster.

  1. Send a photo of where the roaster could go.
  2. We confirm it works and send a quote.
  3. On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
  4. We serve when you are ready.
  5. We leave the garden tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Compared with cooking for everyone yourself, a catered hog roast gives you the day back. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

What you get with us

  • We bring everything to cook and serve
  • Crackling for everyone who wants it
  • Serving and clearing done for you
  • Sides to make it a full meal

Read how we price and our hog roast cost guide.

Allergies and dietary needs

Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:

  • Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
  • Ask about allergies on the invitation
  • Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
  • Keep the vegetarian option labelled

If the party runs late, the roast can wait a little, so just let us know.

Sides turn rolls into a proper party meal.

Occasions we serve in Little Horsted

Hardly any clearing up, because we bring plates and clear away.

These are some of the most popular hog roast bookings near Little Horsted:
