Party hog roast in Wartling
Party hog roast near Wartling
A big birthday deserves a centrepiece, and a whole hog roasting in the garden is exactly that. The smell sets the mood. We serve jacket potatoes, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken, and we’re regularly asked to cater getting-engaged parties and wedding anniversaries.
Near Wartling, parties are often in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll handle the rest. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Request gluten-free rolls
Have a word with the neighbours first: roasting takes hours and the smell travels, and they may ask for a roll.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.
For event organisers in Wartling
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

What we serve, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
