How our party hog roast works in West Hanney
A party hog roast turns a garden party into an occasion. We set up in your garden or on the drive, roast slowly for hours and carve when you are ready, so you’re not stuck in the kitchen. Whether it’s reunions and wedding anniversaries, we will put together a menu of hog roast rolls, coleslaw and rotisserie chicken for your guests.
In a small place like West Hanney, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Let us know about access, and we will plan the route. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
- Think about children’s portions
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
We set up in the agreed spot, leaving the garden to you and your guests.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
