Hog roast hire in Glympton, carved to order
Booking a hog roast means you do not have to cook. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, ready to carve when you are. For staff days and open days and festive gatherings, we’ll put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and salads for your guests.
In a hamlet or village like Glympton, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. The hog is roasted on site at your event, low and slow, for hours.

- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them

The process
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. Light matters for a long roast: in Glympton, sunset is around 9:00pm in late May and 9:30pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- It starts with your date, venue, 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.
- We carve and serve when you’re ready to eat.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
Before we arrive
- Send final numbers in good time
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
