Hog roast hire for your event in Crowell Hill
Hog roast hire takes the cooking off your hands. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, then carve and serve at the time you choose. We serve rotisserie chicken, new potatoes and spit-roast lamb, and we’re often booked for christmas parties and wakes.
In a small place like Crowell Hill, a hog roast frequently goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and firm, level ground matters most. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Can you cater after a service at Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary?
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 usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do we need a big space?
Many gardens are big enough, and a way to wheel the equipment through. A picture helps us check.
Do you come to Crowell Hill?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Crowell Hill and Oxfordshire. Send us the address for a quote.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A picture helps.

- The deposit, balance and cancellation terms
- Exactly what’s included in the price
Step by step
When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Around midsummer it stays light in Crowell Hill until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is usually in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- First, tell us about your event.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Let us know about tight access
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
