Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with food vans, a hog roast serves a lot of people from one roast. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Why us?
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- All the equipment comes with us
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside

Hog roast hire in Hornton, slow-roasted on site
Our hog roast hire is fully catered: roasting, carving and serving are all done for you. If you’d rather do it yourself, we also hire out the machine. For wedding breakfasts and evening food and staff days and open days, we can cook hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and new potatoes and more.
In a hamlet or village like Hornton, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.

For planners, venues and organisers
For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll tell you what we can send.
The process
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Planning an evening hog roast in Hornton? Sunset is around 9:00pm in late May, 9:30pm at midsummer and 7:10pm in late September; once it is dark, we need light at the carving station.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the space and quote.
- We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We pack away and leave you to it.
Preparing for the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Yes, for confident cooks. We will explain the details with your quote.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Do you leave the area tidy?
We pack everything away after service, so you are not left with the mess.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
What happens in bad weather?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.

What a hog roast costs
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- The date and time of year
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- How long the roast and service take
- How many people are eating
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.

For a quick, accurate price, send us:
- The venue or postcode

- Dietary requirements
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a photo
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We will reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
