How hog roast hire works in Wokingham

Hog roast hire takes the cooking off your hands. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, then carve and serve at the time you choose. We are frequently asked to cater festive gatherings and weddings, day or evening, with halloumi skewers, salads and rotisserie chicken.

We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
  3. On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and start roasting.
  4. Our chef carves to order and our staff serve at the agreed time.
  5. We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.

A hog roast across Wokingham: what to know

Across Wokingham, we cover 5 towns and 21 villages and hamlets, so whether your event is in Reading, Woodley and Earley or a quiet village, the approach is the same: a level outdoor spot, a way in and a plan.

Reading: Within reach of Reading are historic houses such as Mapledurham House (3.6 miles north-west). Estates like these tend to have strict rules for caterers, so check before booking. For a fundraiser at a school like Coley Primary School, the roaster can cook on a pitch agreed with the school. Evenings in Reading stay light until about 9:25pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:10pm; once it is dark, we need light at the carving station.

About the food

Roast pork

Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.

Stuffing and apple sauce

No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, cutting through the richness of the pork.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Catered or DIY? Catering means we do everything; DIY hire means you roast and carve yourself. For bigger events, catering is generally the easier choice.

Comparing caterers

  • When payments are due and what happens if plans change
  • What the cooking area needs: space, cover and access
  • The menu, including sides and any extras
  • Travel and any London charges

Planners, venues and businesses

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

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.

Wokingham questions

Does the roaster have to be outside?

It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.

How do we prepare?

Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.

How far ahead should we book?

As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.

What’s included?

Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.

Can you cater in Wokingham?

We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll confirm availability.

Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?

Many gardens are big enough, and a way to wheel the equipment through. A photo helps us check.

Do you leave the area tidy?

We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
