Hog roast for events near Lyneham
A hog roast is one of the most popular stalls at events in Lyneham. We roast on the pitch through the day and carve rolls to order, keeping the queue moving. We’re frequently asked to cater tournaments and sports days and charity days, serving a vegan burger or sausage, rotisserie chicken and apple sauce.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
What affects the price in Lyneham
There’s no fixed price list, because every event is different. The main factors are:
- Season and day of the week
- Time on site
- Distance from us
- How many people are eating
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Getting an accurate quote
To get the best quote, send us:
- Anything the venue has asked for

A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing normally contains gluten.
Crackling
Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
