Hog roast hire in Kingston Lisle, carved to order

With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it is served. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. We serve salads, coleslaw and spit-roast lamb, and we are regularly asked to cater birthdays and anniversaries and christmas parties.

In a small place like Kingston Lisle, a hog roast often goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and level, firm ground is the key. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

How to compare hog roast caterers

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 normally easier.

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

What a hog roast costs

We do not use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:

  • Season and day of the week
  • How long the roast and service take
  • Access to the cooking area
  • Plates or china

Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.

What to tell us

When you get in touch, please mention:

  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Rough numbers
  • Which meats and sides you’d like

The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A photo of the cooking area helps. Fill in our quote form.

What happens on the day

A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. Evenings in Kingston Lisle stay light until about 9:25pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:10pm; once it’s dark, we need light at the carving station.

  1. First, tell us about your event.
  2. We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
  4. We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
  5. We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.

Getting ready for the day

  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
  • Confirm numbers ahead of the day

Kingston Lisle: your questions answered

Is Kingston Lisle close to London?

Roughly 62 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Can you cater after a service at Church of St John the Baptist?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.

What’s the price?

Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Tell us about your event for a quote.

Is our garden big enough?

Often, yes, if there’s a level, open spot away from the house and trees, and a way to wheel the equipment through. Send us a photo.

What if things run late?

We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.

Do you clear up?

We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.

Do we need to provide electricity?

Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

Can you do gluten-free?

Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.

  • Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
  • Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
  • Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
