Hog roast hire for Horam
Hog roast hire in Horam, slow-roasted on site
Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, for hours, under a gazebo outside. Then our chef carves it and the team serves it in rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Typical bookings include weddings, day or evening and work summer parties, with new potatoes, halloumi skewers and coleslaw.
Somewhere like Horam, a yard or firm field frequently works. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve.

A hog roast or other catering?
A hog roast has one downside: it is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
