Party hog roast in Plumpton Green, slow-roasted on site

A party at home needs a little planning for the roaster: level ground outdoors, clear of the house and fences. We will help you choose. Popular choices include hog roast rolls, jacket potatoes and coleslaw, and we are regularly asked to cater reunions and engagement parties.

In a small place like Plumpton Green, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll handle the rest. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Looking after everyone

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Let us know roughly how many children
  • Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
  • Add a dietary question to the invite
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them

We set up in the agreed spot, leaving the garden to you and your guests.

Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
