How our party hog roast works in South Street
Milestone birthdays call for something special, and a whole hog roasting in the garden is exactly that. Your guests will smell it from the street. Popular choices include coleslaw, crackling and a vegan burger or sausage, and we’re regularly asked to cater christenings and getting-engaged parties.
In a small place like South Street, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll handle the rest. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before booking.
The process
Here’s how the day generally runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. Evening parties in South Street need a little planning: it’s light until about 9:15pm in June but only about 7:00pm in late September. Lights by the food keep the party going.
- It starts with the date, the address and a rough guest list.
- We check the space and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive hours ahead and start the roast under cover.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve when you’re ready.
- Afterwards we tidy up the serving area.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Send final numbers in good time

Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Find out who does not eat pork for the alternatives
A cooked roast holds for a while, so tell us if timings change.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Planners, venues and businesses
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.
Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
