Hog roast hire in Barns Green, slow-roasted on site
Booking a hog roast means you do not have to cook. We get there early, put up the cover and roast for hours, ready to carve when you are. Popular choices include spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and coleslaw, and we are often booked for wakes and memorial gatherings and corporate events.
Somewhere as small as Barns Green, a field, yard or garden is frequently the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and level, firm ground is the key. Timings are planned around your event, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a barbecue, one roast feeds everyone at once, instead of food coming off the grill in batches. See our guide to hog roast or barbecue. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and children generally like it too.
Prices and what affects them
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Season and day of the week
- Crockery choices
- Access to the cooking area
Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.

The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:
- Dietary requirements
- A photo of the cooking area
- Your menu choices

Organising for someone else?
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
Step by step
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Light matters for a long roast: in Barns Green, sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- Our chef carves to order and our staff serve at the agreed time.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.

We will be with you for a good part of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
