About our party hog roast in Sarsden
A hog roast makes a party at home feel special. We set up in your garden or on the drive, roast slowly for hours and carve when you are ready, so you can enjoy your own party. We serve hog roast rolls, a vegan burger or sausage and jacket potatoes, and typical bookings are for back-garden get-togethers and leaving and retirement do’s.
A country party near Sarsden is perfect for a hog roast: slow-roasted and eaten outside. Plan shelter in case it rains. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

Sarsden: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Sarsden?
Kingham station, about 2.2 miles west of the centre.
Do you come out to small places like Sarsden?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Should we warn the neighbours?
Give them a heads-up, especially if the roaster is near a fence.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Hours rather than minutes. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Do we need cover?
The roaster has its own cover; guests will want somewhere dry to eat if it rains.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
Can we hire the hog roast machine for our party?
Yes, for confident cooks. Most people prefer us to cook so they can enjoy the party.
About the food
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal.

- Your menu choices

Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
We set up where we agreed and stay out of the way, so the party carries on around us.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
