A hog roast near Caulcott

The process

We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell typically brings people over long before we carve. Late September evenings in Caulcott lose the light at about 7:10pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

  1. We start with a few details about your event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
  4. On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
  5. We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.

Getting ready for the day

  • Send final numbers in good time
  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

About our hog roast hire in Caulcott

A hog roast is one of the simplest ways to feed a crowd in Caulcott: one roast, slow-cooked for hours, carved in front of everyone. We bring the roaster, the cover and the serving kit, and our staff serve and clear. We are frequently asked to cater weddings and receptions and garden parties and barbecues, serving new potatoes, coleslaw and hog roast rolls.

In a hamlet or village like Caulcott, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. The hog is roasted on site at your event, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

Caulcott: your questions answered

Can you cater after a service at Heyford Park Chapel?

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 generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.

Is Caulcott too small for a hog roast?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

How soon do you get booked up?

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we’ll check.

Can you cater for vegetarians?

The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.

Do we need to provide electricity?

No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.

Is crockery included?

Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.

How long does the roast need?

Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.

What do you need from us on the day?

Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.

Catered or do it yourself?

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

Looking after everyone

Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:

  • Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
  • Put the menu on the invitation
  • Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list

If timings shift, tell us: a cooked roast can be held for a while before carving.

China crockery is available on request, at an extra cost.

Occasions we serve in Caulcott

How to compare hog roast caterers

How we price a hog roast

The price comes down to:

  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • Travel to Caulcott
  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • Time on site

Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

What we need to know

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
  • Any venue rules
  • Your date and serving time
  • Where the event is

The quickest way to get a price is to tell us the date, where the event is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.

Stuffing and apple sauce

No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.

Rotisserie chicken

Golden rotisserie chicken goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.

A hog roast or other catering?

Compared with a cold buffet, a hog roast is hot, freshly carved and feels like an occasion. Buffets can sit out for hours. For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Why us?

  • Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
  • Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
  • Fresh carving at the serving station
  • Crackling for everyone who wants it
