A hog roast near Langrish
Hog roast hire in Langrish, carved to order
Slow-roasted pork carved to order: that is hog roast hire in Langrish. Rolls, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling come as standard, with sides and extras to choose from. On the menu are new potatoes, salads and hog roast rolls, and we are regularly asked to cater big birthdays and anniversaries and gatherings after a funeral.
In a hamlet or village like Langrish, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
Langrish: your questions answered
Can you cater after a service at Church of St John the Evangelist?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Is Langrish close to London?
Roughly 52 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
Can you cater in Langrish?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.
Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?
We cover Hampshire and the rest of London and the South East. Send us the address and we will quote.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some guests won’t eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
Let us know if the day runs late: we can hold the roast for a while.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal, and they’re listed in your quote.
Catered or do it yourself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

What happens on the day
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. In Langrish, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We look at the cooking area and send a price.
- We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We pack away and leave you to it.
Preparing for the day
