Full catering or machine hire?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Working with your venue
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.

Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
At food time, we carve and serve, then tidy up.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.
