Hog roast hire in Albury, carved to order
The smell of roasting pork is half the appeal. We cook at your venue in Albury, low and slow, then carve the pork into rolls with all the trimmings. For Fêtes, fairs and shows and club events and presentations, we can cook new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and coleslaw for your guests.
In a small place like Albury, a hog roast often goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm, level ground matters most. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so all you need is the space.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast, priced in the quote.
The process
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. In Albury, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
- At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Send final numbers in good time
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
Get a quote
Send us the date, the address or OX9 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll confirm availability and send a price. Send us your details through our quote form.
Planning help
What a hog roast costs
We work out each quote from:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Whether you want china
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- How easy it is to reach the spot
For larger numbers, a hog roast is typically good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
What to tell us
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Your date and serving time
- Anything the venue has asked for
- What the outdoor space is like
- Roughly how many people
To get a quote, just send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Fill in our quote form.

Albury questions
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Helen?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Is Albury close to London?
About 44 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?
Access and clearance matter more than size. Describe the space and we will tell you honestly.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
How long does the roast need?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it is several hours. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
Can we choose catered or DIY?
Either: we can cater fully or hire out the machine. Most people choose catering.
