Hog roast hire in Fyfield, carved to order
Booking a hog roast means you don’t have to cook. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, ready to carve when you are. For christmas parties and big birthdays and anniversaries, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, rotisserie chicken and salads.
In a small place like Fyfield, 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 level, firm ground is the key. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
Looking after everyone
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
Everything for serving comes with us, so you only need to provide the space.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal.
Full catering or machine hire?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Where the roaster can go in Fyfield
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- Cover for your guests in bad weather
- A safe distance from walls, tents and trees
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. Buffets can sit out for hours. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
What you get with us
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- All the equipment comes with us
- Our staff serve and clear
- Fresh carving at the serving station
See our prices page or the cost guide.
