Hog roast hire in Harefield, carved to order
Hiring a hog roast means a whole hog cooked slowly on site, for hours, under a gazebo outside. When it is ready, our chef carves it and our staff serve it in soft rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and a piece of crackling. Typical bookings include corporate events and wakes and memorial gatherings, serving halloumi skewers, rotisserie chicken and crackling.
In a smaller place like Harefield, a hog roast in the garden is often the simplest option: plenty of room, no hire fees and nobody stuck in the kitchen. Let us know how we reach the garden. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

How the day works
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your guests, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Around midsummer it stays light in Harefield until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is typically in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- 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.
- At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

Why choose a hog roast in Harefield?
Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. Buffets can sit out for hours. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
Why book with us
- All the equipment comes with us
- Carved to order by a chef
- Timed around your day
- Serving and clearing done for you
Take a look at how we price and what a hog roast costs.
What affects the price in Harefield
There is no fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Travel to Harefield
- Season and day of the week
- The number of people
- Whether you want china
The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What we need to know
To check the date and the space, tell us:
- The date and time of the event
- Any venue rules
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- A photo of the cooking area
To get a quote, just send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of the cooking area helps. Send us your details through our quote form.
Your questions about a hog roast in Harefield
Could you cook in The Green?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Which station is closest to Harefield?
The closest is Denham station, roughly 2 miles away.
Can we choose catered or DIY?
Both are available: fully catered, where we roast, carve and serve, or DIY machine hire. Most people choose catering.
Do we need a big space?
Access and clearance matter more than size. Describe the space and we’ll tell you honestly.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we’ll check.
What the cooking area needs
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- Any venue rules sorted in advance
- Cover for your guests in bad weather
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Full catering or machine hire?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Allergies and dietary needs
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
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
You won’t need to worry about the food on the day. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, then clear up.
A second roast, lamb or chicken, gives people a choice, priced in the quote.
For event organisers in Harefield
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.
