Hog roast hire in Buscot, carved to order
With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it’s served. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. On the menu are coleslaw, hog roast rolls and salads, and typical bookings are for club events and presentations and wakes.
In a small place like Buscot, a hog roast often 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. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so you only need to provide the space.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal, and they’re listed in your quote.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a buffet, a hog roast is hot, freshly carved and feels like an occasion. A buffet can sit out all afternoon. For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

What else we do in Buscot
What we serve, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which works well for larger groups.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
The process
We work to your timings. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. Planning an evening hog roast in Buscot? Sunset is around 9:00pm in late May, 9:30pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September; after dark, the serving area and the path to it need good lighting.

- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Gather dietary requirements early
