Party hog roast near Stedham
Throwing a party is hard work. A hog roast takes the food off your list: we roast, carve, serve and clear. For garden parties and close and cul-de-sac parties, we can cook apple sauce, jacket potatoes and coleslaw for your guests.
In a small place like Stedham, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll handle the rest. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

What a hog roast costs
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Crockery choices
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Distance from us
- How long the roast and service take
For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
