What comes off the roaster
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
What happens on the day
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Evening parties in Willey Green need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it’s around 7:05pm. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.

Catered or do it yourself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Next to a barbecue, you’re not stuck flipping burgers all afternoon, and the food is ready for everyone at once. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
