Slow-roasted pork in Chaddleworth

Hog roast hire for your event in Chaddleworth

In Chaddleworth, we cater birthdays, weddings, staff days and fêtes. Whatever the occasion, the format is the same: a slow roast on site, carved fresh and served by our team. Typical bookings include village fêtes and school fairs and weddings and receptions, with salads, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers.

In a small place like Chaddleworth, 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 is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

Your questions about a hog roast in Chaddleworth

Can you cater after a service at Church of St Andrew?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the North Wessex Downs National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.

Can you roast in the rain?

We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.

What if things run late?

We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

Is mains power needed?

Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

Will there be enough to go round?

We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.

What’s included?

Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.

What’s the price?

Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your event for a quote.

What affects the price in Chaddleworth

There is no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:

  • How many people are eating
  • Site access

What we need to know

To check the date and the space, tell us:

  • Rough numbers
  • Your menu choices
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • The venue or postcode

Busy weekends book up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we will check it: fill in our quote form.

The process

Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. Late September evenings in Chaddleworth lose the light at about 7:10pm, and in December it is nearer 4:00pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

  1. You share the when, where and how many.
  2. We look at the cooking area and send a price.
  3. We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve.
  5. We clear up and go.

Before we arrive

  • Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Have a level outdoor spot ready
  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Planning help

For planners, venues and organisers

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

Venues often have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and tell us what they ask for.

A closer look at the menu

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

We can serve in rolls or on plates, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)

Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we will plan the vegan burgers or sausages.

Looking after everyone

Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
  • Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed

You won’t need to worry about the food on the day. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.

We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.

  • Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
  • Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
  • Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
  • Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
