Hog roast hire for your event in Blendon
Slow-roasted pork carved to order: that’s hog roast hire in Blendon. Rolls, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling come as standard, and you can add sides and other meats. We’re often asked to cater community events and club events and presentations, with crackling, salads and spit-roast lamb.
From a family garden to an office courtyard, bookings in Blendon come in all shapes. Let us know about the route in, including steps, narrow gates and parking for our vehicle. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

How we price a hog roast
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The number of people
- The journey to the venue
- Access to the cooking area
- Plates or china
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
What we need to know
To check the date and the space, we’ll need:
- Your menu choices
- Where the event is
- An estimate of numbers
- Any venue rules
It is easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Fill in our quote form.

About the food
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which works well for larger groups.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, roasted until golden.
Step by step
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Evenings in Blendon stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; once it’s dark, we need light at the carving station.
- First, tell us about your event.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
How to prepare
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

Planning help
Organising for someone else?
For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
You’ll get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
The roaster needs looking after for hours, which is our job, not yours. You can relax and enjoy the day.
We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.
Blendon questions
Can you cater after a service at St James the Great?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Can you do a hog roast in Danson Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Can we have lamb or chicken?
The hog is the centrepiece, with lamb and chicken as extras.
What comes with the hog roast?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Full catering or machine hire?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A way to wheel the roaster to the spot
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Cover for your guests in bad weather
Blendon 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.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Why choose a hog roast in Blendon?
A hog roast has one downside: it’s pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
