How our hog roast hire works in Cryers Hill
There is nothing quite like the smell of a hog roast drifting across a garden or field. We cook at your venue in Cryers Hill, low and slow, then serve it in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. We are frequently asked to cater club events and presentations and garden parties and barbecues, with new potatoes, crackling and rotisserie chicken.
Somewhere as small as Cryers Hill, a field, yard or garden is often the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm, level ground matters most. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

Catered or do it yourself?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle
- A safe distance from walls, tents and trees
- Permission from the venue or landowner
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

Step by step
Here’s how the day usually runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Around midsummer it stays light in Cryers Hill until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We look at the cooking area and send a price.
- We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve.
- We clear up and go.
How to prepare

Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.

Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we’ll suggest the best fit for your budget.
What we need to know
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- Allergies we should know about

- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance

Cryers Hill questions
Is Cryers Hill 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 cater at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
What happens when we hire a hog roast?
You choose the date, the menu and the serving time; we do the rest. Just give us an outdoor spot to cook.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do we need a big space?
Often, yes, if there is a level, open spot away from the house and trees, and a way to wheel the equipment through. A picture helps us check.
Can you cater in Cryers Hill?
Yes, Cryers Hill is in our area. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we will check.

- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce

- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
