Slow-roasted pork in Way
Party hog roast near Way
Plan where the roaster will go: a level spot away from the house and trees, under cover. We will help you choose. Popular choices include jacket potatoes, crackling and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for big family get-togethers and retirement parties.

Questions from Way
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Is Way close to London?
About 62 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
What comes with the hog roast?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Do we need cover?
The roaster has its own cover; guests will want somewhere dry to eat if it rains.
Do you do DIY hire for parties?
Yes, for confident cooks. Catering is the easier option.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Do we need our own staff?
You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them.
For planners, venues and organisers
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.
Looking after everyone
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
A cooked roast holds for a while, so tell us if timings change.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
