DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg, in a roll or on a plate.

Questions from Boveney
Which station is closest to Boveney?
Windsor & Eton Central station, about 1.7 miles east of the centre.
Can you cater after a service at St Mary Magdalene's Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: use our quote form.
Do you cook it or do we?
Either: fully catered, where we roast, carve and serve, or DIY machine hire. Catering is the most popular choice.
What happens when we hire a hog roast?
We handle the roasting, carving and serving. Just give us an outdoor spot to cook.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
What’s the price?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
Do you cover Boveney?
Yes, Boveney is in our area. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone, instead of food coming off the grill in batches. See our guide to hog roast or barbecue. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Why book our hog roast in Boveney

What the cooking area needs

- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
