Step by step

Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Golden-hour photos in Fulking at midsummer come around 9:20pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:50pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.

  1. Choose the main meal, the evening food or both.
  2. We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
  3. We confirm the cooking spot and access with the venue.
  4. We set up and roast for hours.
  5. We carve and serve, then clear away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

How to compare hog roast caterers

Should I cook it myself?

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Pass numbers for vegetarians and vegans to us
  • Ask about dietary needs on your RSVP card
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
  • Note which guests do not eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options

If speeches overrun or the band starts late, we adjust. Your coordinator can keep us posted.

Gluten-free rolls can be provided for the evening food.

What a hog roast costs

  • Where the event is
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
