Hog roast hire in Brimpton Common, carved to order
Slow-roasted pork carved to order: that is hog roast hire in Brimpton Common. The classic roll comes with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, and you can add sides and other meats. We’re frequently asked to cater weddings and receptions and community events, with spit-roast lamb, new potatoes and halloumi skewers.
In a small place like Brimpton Common, a hog roast frequently goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and level, firm ground is the key. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
We will be with you for a good part of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast.
About the food
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.
Crackling
Crackling is what people queue for: crisp, golden and full of flavour.

How we price a hog roast
Your quote depends on:
- Menu choices and extras
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Whether you want china
- The serving time and how long we are on site
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

To check the date and the space, tell us:
- What the outdoor space is like
- Dietary requirements
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The venue or postcode
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: use our quote form.
Questions from Brimpton Common
Is Brimpton Common too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Brimpton Common from London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
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.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we will check.
For event organisers in Brimpton Common
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
What the cooking area needs
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what we look for:
- Permission from the venue or landowner
- A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
