DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
How our party hog roast works in Sutton Scotney
Hosting a party means juggling everything at once. A hog roast takes the food off your list: we cook, carve and serve. Whether it is ruby, golden and diamond anniversaries and garden parties, we can cook hog roast rolls, rotisserie chicken and crackling and more.
A country party near Sutton Scotney is perfect for a hog roast: slow-roasted and eaten outside. Plan shelter in case it rains. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish.
Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Let us know roughly how many children
We get there early to start the roast, so it’s cooking when guests arrive.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Space, access and the venue
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- Neighbours warned about the smell
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we serve, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Sutton Scotney: your questions answered
Can you cater after a service at Ebenezer Methodist Chapel?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you come out to small places like Sutton Scotney?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?
We cover the cooking area, but plan somewhere dry for guests.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Most children like pork in a soft roll, with chicken as an alternative.
Is crockery included?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
What happens on the day
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking does not depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. A summer party in Sutton Scotney stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:10pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We set up hours ahead.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We clear the serving area and go.
How to prepare
