Hog roast hire in Clatterford
How our hog roast hire works in Clatterford
There is nothing quite like the smell of a hog roast drifting across a garden or field. We roast slowly on site in Clatterford, then serve it in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. We’re often asked to cater christmas parties and Fêtes, fairs and shows, serving crackling, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls.
Somewhere as small as Clatterford, a field, yard or garden is often the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and level, firm ground is the key. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Why choose a hog roast in Clatterford?
Next to a buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. 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.

What happens on the day
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Late September evenings in Clatterford lose the light at about 7:10pm, and in December it’s nearer 4:00pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.

Catered or do it yourself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
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.

Clatterford questions
Can you cater after a service at Church of St. Nicholas in Castro?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Is Clatterford too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Do you come to Clatterford?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Clatterford and the Isle of Wight. Send us the address for a quote.
Who serves?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
How big a hog will we need?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Do you provide china?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Put the menu on the invitation
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
Slow roasting needs attention, and that’s what we are there for. You can get on with your event.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.
Space, access and the venue
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- Any venue rules sorted in advance
For somewhere as remote as Clatterford, early notice helps us plan the trip.
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.
