The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Planning for dietary needs
Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
We get there early to start the roast, so it is cooking when guests arrive.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.
Full catering or machine hire?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Why choose a hog roast in Wormley?
Next to doing it all yourself, you get to enjoy the party. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why us?
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Choices for people who do not eat pork

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Generally, yes, so we can plan quantities.

How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
For planners, venues and organisers

The process
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. Sunset in Wormley is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so an early-evening carve is usually in daylight. After about 3:55pm in December, we need light to carve.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We tidy up and pack away.
How to prepare
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Name a contact for the day
