About our hog roast hire in Egypt
In Egypt, we cater birthdays, weddings, staff days and fêtes. Whatever the occasion, the format is the same: slow roasting at your venue, then carving and serving. Typical bookings include garden parties and barbecues and weddings, day or evening, with hog roast rolls, spit-roast lamb and coleslaw.
Somewhere as small as Egypt, a field, yard or garden is often the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and firm, level ground matters most. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

About the food
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal.
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
We’ll be with you for a good part of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal, and they’re listed in your quote.
