Hog roast hire in Bramshott, carved to order
People book a hog roast in Bramshott for everything from birthdays to fêtes. Whatever the occasion, the format is the same: a slow roast on site, carved fresh and served by our team. We serve hog roast rolls, spit-roast lamb and new potatoes, and we’re regularly asked to cater birthdays and anniversaries and wedding breakfasts and evening food.
Somewhere like Bramshott, a yard or firm field often works. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
Should I cook it myself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
How it works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. Around midsummer it stays light in Bramshott until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- We carve and serve when you are ready to eat.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.

- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them

Let us know if the day runs late: we can hold the roast for a while.

Can you work around our timings?
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.

We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
