Slow-roasted pork in Belmont
About our hog roast hire in Belmont
People book a hog roast in Belmont for everything from birthdays to fêtes. Whatever the occasion, the format is the same: slow roasting at your venue, then carving and serving. Typical bookings include big birthdays and anniversaries and wedding breakfasts and evening food, with spit-roast lamb, coleslaw and halloumi skewers.
There may be a hall or playing field near Belmont if the garden is small; any can work, with the owner’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster. 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.
About the food
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Spit-roast lamb
With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which works well for larger groups.
Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast needs no kitchen and fewer staff, which usually keeps the cost down. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Why book with us
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Sides to make it a full meal

- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

Is it just pork?
The hog is the centrepiece, but lamb and chicken can be added.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.

The process
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your guests, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: in Belmont, sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
