Party hog roast in South Street
Party hog roast near South Street
Hosting a party means juggling everything at once. A hog roast takes the food off your list: we cook, carve and serve. We are frequently asked to cater summer parties in the garden and retirement celebrations, serving a vegan burger or sausage, crackling and jacket potatoes.
In a small place like South Street, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will plan the route. 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.

For event organisers in South Street
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Instead of booking a restaurant, you keep the party at home, with room for everyone. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why us?
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Serving and clearing done for you
- Served at the time you choose

Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.
Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

It’s worth warning them: the roast cooks for hours and the smell travels. They may want a roll.

Frequently, yes, if there is a level spot away from the house and trees, given access for the equipment. A picture helps.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.
Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?
