What a hog roast costs
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- How long the roast and service take
- Site access
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Distance from us
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

Hog roast hire in Bentley Heath, slow-roasted on site
Hog roast hire takes the cooking off your hands. We get there early, put up the cover and roast for hours, ready to carve when you are. Typical bookings include weddings, day or evening and parties at home, serving spit-roast lamb, crackling and halloumi skewers.
London gardens around Bentley Heath are often small and close to neighbours, so we look for a spot well away from fences, sheds and windows. Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.

Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
- Find out who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
Name someone to meet us, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, quoted separately.
Your questions about a hog roast in Bentley Heath
Which station is closest to Bentley Heath?
Potters Bar station, about 1 mile north of the centre.
Can you cater after a service at Church of King Charles and the Martyr?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.
Who serves?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Is it just pork?
Pork is the classic, and you can add spit-roast lamb or rotisserie chicken. There are vegetarian and vegan options as well.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.
Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?
Access and clearance matter more than size. Tell us about the garden and we will advise.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. Buffets can sit out for hours. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
Why us?
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Planned to your running order
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
Take a look at our prices page or the cost guide.
Space, access and the venue
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
Bentley Heath is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
The process
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Late September evenings in Bentley Heath lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it is nearer 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.
- You share the when, where and how many.

- We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve.
- We pack away and leave you to it.
Before we arrive
