Hog roast hire for your event in Chalkshire

People book a hog roast in Chalkshire for everything from birthdays to fêtes. Whatever the occasion, the format is the same: a slow roast on site, carved fresh and served by our team. For summer garden parties and corporate events, we can cook halloumi skewers, spit-roast lamb and new potatoes and more.

For a rural spot like Chalkshire, a hog roast feels right at home. Let us know about access and ground conditions. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

For planners, venues and organisers

For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.

Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.

Full catering or machine hire?

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

The obvious catch is that a hog roast is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Why Chalkshire hosts choose us

  • Fresh carving at the serving station
  • All the equipment comes with us
  • A clear quote with everything listed
  • Served at the time you choose

Read how we price or what a hog roast costs.

How it works

We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so tell us as soon as plans change. Light matters for a long roast: in Chalkshire, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm.

  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 pack away and leave you to it.

How to prepare

  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
  • Confirm numbers ahead of the day
  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
