Hog roast hire for Danesfield
Hog roast hire in Danesfield, carved to order
In Danesfield, a hog roast is an easy way to feed a lot of people: a single slow roast, carved to order. Everything comes with us, and we serve and tidy up afterwards. For clubhouse events and big birthdays and anniversaries, we will put together a menu of coleslaw, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls and more.
In a small place like Danesfield, a hog roast frequently goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm, level ground matters most. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them
Slow roasting needs attention, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
A closer look at the menu
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, and it is carved the same way, often with mint sauce.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed goes into rolls or onto plates alongside the pork.

The process
Here’s how the day generally runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. Late September evenings in Danesfield lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
- We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
- Our chef carves to order and our staff serve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

What else we do in Danesfield
For event organisers in Danesfield
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Catered or do it yourself?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
How we price a hog roast
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- How long the roast and service take
For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
What we need to know
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Roughly how many people
- What the outdoor space is like
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Send us your details through our quote form.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a cold buffet, a hog roast is hot, freshly carved and feels like an occasion. A buffet can sit out all afternoon. Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
