About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.

South Ruislip station, about 1.4 miles south-west of the centre.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.

Can you work around our timings?
We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will talk it through when we quote.
What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. Summer events in Roxbourne have daylight until about 9:25pm at midsummer and about 7:05pm by late September, so evening trading generally finishes in daylight in high summer. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, the pitch needs lighting.
- Share the date, site and expected crowds.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We roast on the pitch.
- Carving keeps the queue moving.
- We tidy the pitch.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Let us know about tight access
Ask for a quote
Every event is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
A hog roast alongside cakes and teas gives visitors a good choice. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Why Roxbourne hosts choose us
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- All the equipment comes with us
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
Read how we price or what a hog roast costs.
What affects the price in Roxbourne
The biggest factors are:
- The number of people
- Access to the cooking area
- The journey to the venue
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups usually cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Getting an accurate quote
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- The date and time of the event
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- A photo of the cooking area
- An estimate of numbers
Not sure how many to cater for? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Use our quote form.
