About our hog roast hire in George Green
Booking a hog roast means you don’t have to cook. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, then carve and serve at the time you choose. On the menu are rotisserie chicken, spit-roast lamb and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for village fêtes and school fairs and club events and presentations.
In a hamlet or village like George Green, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

For event organisers in George Green
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
The process
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around George Green, 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, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
