Catered or do it yourself?
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.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Is a hog roast right for you?
Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. A buffet can sit out all afternoon.
