About our hog roast hire in Hatch Warren
We provide a fully catered hog roast: we roast, our chef carves and our staff serve. If you’d rather do it yourself, we also hire out the machine. We serve new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls, and we’re regularly asked to cater birthdays and anniversaries and weddings and receptions.
A place like Hatch Warren often has a village hall, a recreation ground or a pub garden nearby; any can host a hog roast with permission. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you’re not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

A hog roast compared with other options
A hog roast has one downside: it is pork. That’s why we offer lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Why us?
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests

Should I cook it myself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal, especially at a sit-down event.
