Book a hog roast in Dadford
How the day works
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. In Dadford, the sun sets at about 9:30pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, 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.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
How to prepare
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Name a contact for the day

About our hog roast hire in Dadford
It is a simple format that suits most crowds: roast pork in a soft roll, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, plus lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan choices if you want them. On the menu are spit-roast lamb, crackling and new potatoes, and we are regularly asked to cater parties at home and wakes and memorial gatherings.

What else we do in Dadford
Looking after everyone
Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
We will agree a contact for the day, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.
China crockery is available on request, at an extra cost.
Working with your venue
If you’re a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Should I cook it myself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Your questions about a hog roast in Dadford
Is Dadford close to London?
About 55 miles from central London.
Can you cater after a service at Parish Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
When should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
Do you cover Dadford?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Dadford and the rest of Buckinghamshire included. 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. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?
Many gardens are big enough, and a way to wheel the equipment through. Send us a photo.
Is hog roast hire catered or DIY?
Both are available: we can cater fully or hire out the machine. Catering is the most popular choice.
Planning a hog roast in Dadford

Catered or DIY? Catering means we do everything; DIY hire means you roast and carve yourself. Most hosts choose catering for anything bigger than a family party. Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.
