Hog roast hire for your event in Chavey Down
People book a hog roast in Chavey Down for everything from birthdays to fêtes. The idea is always the same: a slow roast on site, carved fresh and served by our team. Popular choices include halloumi skewers, coleslaw and crackling, and we are often booked for parties at home and village fêtes and school fairs.
In a small place like Chavey Down, a hog roast often goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and level, firm ground is the key. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

How we price a hog roast
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- The date and time of year
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Numbers
- How easy it is to reach the spot
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Details that help
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- An estimate of numbers
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- The venue or postcode
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.
What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Tell us how many vegans to expect, and we’ll plan the vegan burgers or sausages.
Organising for someone else?
For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so all you need is the space.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Why choose a hog roast in Chavey Down?

Why Chavey Down hosts choose us
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- We bring everything to cook and serve

Catered or do it yourself?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
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.
Space, access and the venue
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Parking near the spot
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
- Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
Getting ready for the day
