Hog roast hire for your event in Britwell Salome

In a small place like Britwell Salome, a hog roast frequently goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and firm, level ground matters most. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

How it works
Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Late September evenings in Britwell Salome lose the light at about 7:10pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear 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.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

Questions from Britwell Salome
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Nicholas: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
How far is Britwell Salome from London?
About 41 miles from central London, and well within our area.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your event for a quote.
Will people get crackling?
Of course: the skin turns to crackling and everyone gets some.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Can we have lamb or chicken?
Pork is the classic, and you can add spit-roast lamb or rotisserie chicken. There are vegetarian and vegan options as well.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Next to a street-food van, a hog roast feeds a crowd quickly from one roast, with no waiting for individual orders to cook. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. We quote every event individually, with everything listed.

Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests won’t eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
If timings shift, tell us: a cooked roast can be held for a while before carving.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Planning the cooking spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- Parking near the spot
- Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
- Access for our equipment, without steps
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
