Is a hog roast right for your event?
A hog roast has one downside: it is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

About our hog roast hire in Barwell
The smell of roasting pork is half the appeal. We roast slowly on site in Barwell, then carve the pork into rolls with all the trimmings. Whether it is christmas fairs and club events and presentations, we can cook coleslaw, halloumi skewers and new potatoes for your guests.
Gardens in Barwell tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, so we look for a spot well away from fences, sheds and windows. A word with the neighbours before a long roast is always a good idea. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Organising for someone else?
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

How it works
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Light matters for a long roast: in Barwell, 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.
