Slow-roasted pork in Combe
Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
About our hog roast hire in Combe
We roast the hog at your event, not in a kitchen miles away, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it’s served. Add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options if you like. Popular choices include halloumi skewers, new potatoes and coleslaw, and we’re often booked for staff days and open days and big birthdays and anniversaries.
In a hamlet or village like Combe, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Our staff serve and clear, so you are not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

FAQs for Combe
Is Combe too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you cater after a service at St Laurence's Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What do people get?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
What meats can we have?
Pork is the classic, and you can add spit-roast lamb or rotisserie chicken. Vegetarian and vegan options are available too.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
How do we prepare?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.

Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast needs no kitchen and fewer staff, which normally keeps the cost down. For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
