Party hog roast in Soldridge, carved to order
Hosting a party means juggling everything at once. With a hog roast, the food is sorted: we roast, carve, serve and clear. For street parties and christenings and naming days, we will put together a menu of hog roast rolls, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce for your guests.
In a small place like Soldridge, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll handle the rest. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a party buffet, hot carved pork feels more special, and nothing sits out all afternoon. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What you get with us
- Carved to order by a chef

Common questions in Soldridge
We are gathering after a service at Church of the Good Shepherd: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Do you come out to small places like Soldridge?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
What about the neighbours?
Give them a heads-up, especially if the roaster is near a fence.
Do we need our own staff?
You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Do you come to Soldridge?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.
Will you clear up afterwards?
We tidy the serving area.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Plain pork rolls go down well with children, and chicken or a vegan sausage covers fussy eaters.
Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
- A word with the neighbours
- A wet-weather plan for guests
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
What we serve
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Rotisserie chicken
- Jacket potatoes
- Coleslaw
- Hog roast rolls
- Crackling
- Salads
- Stuffing and apple sauce
Catered or do it yourself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables.

Planning for dietary needs
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Think about children’s portions
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
We set up where we agreed and stay out of the way, leaving the garden to you and your guests.
Add chicken for younger or fussier guests.
How it works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. Sunset in Soldridge is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 4:00pm in December, we need light to carve.
- Send a picture of where the roaster could go.
- We confirm it works and send a quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- Our staff serve rolls and sides.
- We clear up so you don’t have to.
Before we arrive
