About our hog roast hire in Great Kimble
It is a simple format that suits most crowds: roast pork in a soft roll, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, plus lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan choices if you want them. Popular choices include spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken, and we’re regularly asked to cater big birthdays and anniversaries and community events.
Somewhere as small as Great Kimble, 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 plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

A second roast, lamb or chicken, gives people a choice.
The process
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we do not need mains power to cook. Evenings in Great Kimble stay light until about 9:25pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; once it’s dark, we need light at the carving station.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- We carve and serve when you’re ready to eat.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Preparing for the day
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Let us know about tight access
How to get a price
