Hog roast for events in Uffington

Hog roast for events in Uffington, slow-roasted on site

Village fêtes around Uffington suit a hog roast: the smell draws people over, and rolls are easy to eat while walking round. Typical bookings include food and music festivals and tournaments and sports days, serving crackling, rotisserie chicken and a vegan burger or sausage.

Near Uffington, events may be far from shops and cafés, so a hog roast goes down well. The carving happens right in front of your visitors, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

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.

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

Event catering near Uffington

Uffington is about 6 miles west of Wantage, in Oxfordshire. From village halls to gardens and fields, events around Uffington suit a hog roast. We cater 443 places in Oxfordshire. We cater events right across the region, from Uffington to Oxford (about 17 miles away).

School fairs, for a school like Uffington Church of England Primary School, are a natural fit for a hog roast. Within about 7 miles is the North Wessex Downs National Landscape, where events may have extra rules on cooking and waste; we’ll follow the site’s requirements.

Wherever your event is in SN7, we can bring the roaster to you. That could mean an event in a garden on High Street, Station Road and White Horse, wherever there is an outdoor spot for the roaster. We also bring hog roasts to events in Baulking (1 mile north-east), Fernham (2 miles north-west), Shellingford (3 miles north), Little Coxwell (3 miles north-west) and Stanford in the Vale (3 miles north-east).

Working with your venue

Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

What happens on the day

A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. In late May, sunset in Uffington is about 9:00pm, while at midsummer it is about 9:25pm. After dark, the stall needs lighting.

  1. Organisers send us the date, site, numbers and how food will be paid for.
  2. You get a check on the date and pitch, and a quote.
  3. On the day we set up under cover and get the hog on.
  4. We serve to order through the event.
  5. We pack down, take our waste and leave the pitch clean.

Before we arrive

  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
  • Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Let us know about tight access

Prices and what affects them

There is no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:

  • Access to the cooking area
  • The serving time and how long we’re on site
  • The number of people
  • Which meats and sides you choose

Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

What we need to know

These are the details we need:

  • Your date and serving time
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
  • An estimate of numbers
  • Dietary requirements

Send us the date, the address or SN7 postcode and rough numbers, along with your serving time. We will confirm availability and send a price. Fill in our quote form.
