By late September, sunset in Broughton is around 7:10pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

How our hog roast hire works in Broughton
The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: roast pork in a soft roll, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, and alternatives for anyone who doesn’t eat pork. We serve spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and crackling, and we are frequently booked for christmas parties and work summer parties.
Somewhere as small as Broughton, a field, yard or garden is often the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm, level ground matters most. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve.

Planning a hog roast in Broughton
Broughton is about 2 miles south-west of Banbury, in Oxfordshire. Broughton is well within our area for events and the places nearby. We bring hog roasts to 443 places across Oxfordshire, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater events right across the region, from Broughton to Oxford (21 miles away).
If you are organising a summer fair for a school like Bishop Carpenter Church of England Aided Primary School, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser. For a christening or gathering after a service at a church such as Church of St Mary the Virgin, the roaster can be set up at a hall or home nearby.
Events anywhere in OX15 start with an outdoor spot for the roaster. That could mean an event in a garden on Danvers Close, Danvers Road and Wykham Lane, wherever there is an outdoor spot for the roaster. Nearby, we also cater events in North Newington (1 mile north), Neithrop (2 miles north-east), Ruscote (2 miles north-east), Bloxham (2 miles south) and Drayton (2 miles north). Further out, we also cater in Bicester (14 miles south-east), Bure Park (13 miles south-east), Chipping Norton (10 miles south-west), Grimsbury (3 miles north-east), Woodstock (14 miles south) and Bodicote (3 miles east).

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
A hog roast has one downside: it’s pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too for anyone who doesn’t eat it. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why us?
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
- Cooked on the day, low and slow

What a hog roast costs
We work out each quote from:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Numbers
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Plates or china
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
What we need to know
To check availability and the cooking area, we’ll need:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Your date and serving time
- Rules from the venue or landowner
Every event is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.

Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Parking near the spot
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
- A way to wheel the roaster to the spot
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
What we serve
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
- Salads
- Rotisserie chicken
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Stuffing
- Apple sauce
- Spit-roast lamb
- New potatoes
- Crackling
- Hog roast rolls
- Coleslaw
- Roast or jacket potatoes
Looking after everyone
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
Slow roasting needs attention, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal.
Broughton questions
What’s the nearest station to Broughton?
Banbury station, about 2.7 miles north-east of the centre.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary the Virgin: can you cater?
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. Send us the address.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t provide halal meat.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
How does hog roast hire work?
We handle the roasting, carving and serving. Just give us an outdoor spot to cook.
When should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
Can you cater in Broughton?
We do. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
Full catering or machine hire?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
