Party hog roast in Parker's Green, slow-roasted on site
A party at home needs a little planning for the roaster: a level spot away from the house and trees, under cover. We will check it with you. For ruby, golden and diamond anniversaries and reunions, we can cook hog roast rolls, a vegan burger or sausage and crackling.
Near Parker's Green, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll plan the route. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

What we serve, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Everything goes into a soft roll, perfect for eating on the move. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork for the alternatives
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
Ensure the gate or side passage is open when we arrive, so we can bring everything through.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.
Should I cook it myself?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
