How our party hog roast works in Upper Green

What happens on the day
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Evening parties in Upper Green need a little planning: it is light until about 9:25pm in June but only about 7:10pm in late September. Lights by the food keep the party going.

Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
A cooked roast holds for a while, so just let us know.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Planners, venues and businesses
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a restaurant booking, a hog roast at home lets everyone relax in the garden. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
