Hog roast hire in Baulking
How our hog roast hire works in Baulking
Our hog roast hire is fully catered: we roast, our chef carves and our staff serve. If you’d rather do it yourself, we also hire out the machine. On the menu are coleslaw, new potatoes and hog roast rolls, and we are frequently booked for weddings, day or evening and garden parties and barbecues.
In a small place like Baulking, a hog roast often goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, 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.

Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
We will be with you for a good part of the day, because the roast starts hours before you eat.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
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.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast needs no kitchen and fewer staff, which typically keeps the cost down. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Why us?

How the day works
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. By late September, sunset in Baulking is around 7:10pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 4:00pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
