Space, access and the venue

A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:

A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
A level patio, lawn or driveway
Space for our vehicle near the drive

For somewhere as remote as Newchurch, early notice helps us plan the trip.

If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

FAQs for Newchurch

Can you roast near the sea around Newchurch?

Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.

We are gathering after a service at All Saints' Church: can you cater?

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 typically elsewhere. Send us the address.

What comes with the hog roast?

Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.

Will there be enough to go round?

The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so tell us your best estimate. We will confirm the menu in the quote.

How far ahead should we book?

The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.

Who serves?

We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.

Do you need power or water?

The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:

Think about children’s portions
Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
Ask about allergies on the invitation

Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours, and they may ask for a roll.

Ask about china for a sit-down party, quoted separately.

For event organisers in Newchurch

Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we will tell you what we can send.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

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

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

Step by step

Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In Newchurch, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so an early-evening carve is generally in daylight. After about 4:00pm in December, we need light to carve.

What a hog roast costs

There is no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:

The date and time of year
Time on site
Site access
Which meats and sides you choose

Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

What we need to know

Here’s what we’ll ask:

Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
Roughly how many people
Anything the venue has asked for
Any dietary needs or allergies

What we serve, dish by dish

Rotisserie chicken

Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate.

Stuffing and apple sauce

Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce turn a pork roll into a hog roast roll.
