Hog roast hire in Frilford, carved to order
People book a hog roast in Frilford for everything from birthdays to fêtes. The idea is always the same: slow roasting at your venue, then carving and serving. For community events and club events and presentations, we can cook coleslaw, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers.
In a small place like Frilford, a hog roast often 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. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Should I cook it myself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
The process
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Light matters for a long roast: around Frilford, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- 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.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Name a contact for the day
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

Allergies and dietary needs
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
We’ll agree a contact for the day, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Planning the cooking spot
Most outdoor spaces can work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
- Any venue rules sorted in advance
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, straight from the roaster.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
