How our hog roast hire works in Chieveley
Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, for hours, under a gazebo outside. Then our chef carves it and the team serves it in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and a piece of crackling. We are often asked to cater club events and presentations and weddings and receptions, with spit-roast lamb, coleslaw and hog roast rolls.
Somewhere like Chieveley, a yard or firm field frequently works. Mention gates and soft ground when you contact us. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

A hog roast or other catering?
A hog roast has one downside: it is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
Why us?
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Carved to order by a chef
- Served at the time you choose
See our prices page and the cost guide.
Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
- Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
Expect us to be on site for much of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast, priced in the quote.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
