Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Find out who does not eat pork for the alternatives
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then clear up the serving area.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.
Planners, venues and businesses
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to doing it all yourself, you get to enjoy the party. For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Why Upper Edmonton hosts choose us
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Planned to your running order
