Party hog roast for Winsor
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
We set up in the agreed spot, leaving the garden to you and your guests.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
About our party hog roast in Winsor
A hog roast makes a party at home feel special. We roast on site in Winsor, then carve at the time you choose, so you are not stuck in the kitchen. We’re frequently asked to cater close and cul-de-sac parties and big family get-togethers, with a vegan burger or sausage, crackling and rotisserie chicken.
A country party near Winsor is perfect for a hog roast: slow-roasted and eaten outside. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. The hog is roasted on site at your party, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your guests.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Questions from Winsor
Which station is closest to Winsor?
Ashurst New Forest station, about 2.7 miles south-east of the centre.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you do DIY hire for parties?
If you’re happy to roast and carve, yes. Catering is the easier option.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do we need cover?
We bring cover for the roaster; guests will want somewhere dry to eat if it rains.
