A hog roast can be done almost everywhere, either indoors or outdoors. All we need is a well ventilated space. The pig can be delivered ready cooked and just served or the pig can be cooked on site in one place and then served from another.
A pig will take between four and six hours. On the day of your event a hog roast chef will arrive on site approximately 6 hours before your chosen serving time. We will prepare all side dishes, salads, potatoes etc on site while your meat is slowly cooking. Other meats take slightly less time to cook for example a spit roasted lamb would be 3-4 hours. We will always arrive in plenty of time so that the meat is cooked and perfect for serving at the time you request.
All menu packages will include a hog roast caterer and assistant to prepare, care and serve. Other packages will include serving staff, front of house person etc if they are part of your chosen menu. Whatever your serving requirements we will provide fully trained professional staff.
