Hog roast hire in Bray
How the day works
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. In Bray, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is typically in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
How to prepare
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

Bray: your questions answered
Can you cater after a service at St Michael's Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Which station is closest to Bray?
The closest is Taplow station, roughly 1.3 miles away.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Can you cater in Bray?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.

Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
