Party hog roast in Woodmancote, carved to order
Rolls are easy for party guests to eat standing up, so hog roast rolls are ideal. Alternatives cover anyone who does not eat pork. Popular choices include apple sauce, rotisserie chicken and crackling, and we’re regularly asked to cater close and cul-de-sac parties and summer parties in the garden.
In a small place like Woodmancote, a party in the garden or a nearby field is often the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll handle the rest. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

A closer look at the menu
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Our vegan option is a vegan burger or sausage, in a roll, with salad on the side.
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Think about children’s portions
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
At food time, we carve and serve, then clear up the serving area.
China crockery is available on request, at extra cost.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
