DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Questions from Standlake
Do you come out to small places like Standlake?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you cater after a service at St Giles' Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What should we sort out beforehand?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We will bring the rest.
Can you cater in Standlake?
We do. Send us the address and we will check the date.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Can we hire the hog roast machine for our party?
You can hire the machine. We will talk you through it when we quote.
When do you start roasting?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
The process
When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. Autumn parties in Standlake get dark early: about 7:10pm by late September and 3:55pm by December. Light the garden path and the serving area.
