Hog roast hire for Lavendon
How our hog roast hire works in Lavendon
It is a simple format that suits most crowds: pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a roll, and alternatives for anyone who does not eat pork. Whether it’s community events and wedding breakfasts and evening food, we can cook coleslaw, new potatoes and crackling.
In a small place like Lavendon, a hog roast often goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and level, firm ground is the key. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Is a hog roast right for your event?
Next to a formal plated meal, a hog roast doesn’t need a kitchen, which frequently makes it better value. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups usually cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.

About the food
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes turn rolls into a full meal.
Spit-roast lamb
With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which works well for larger groups.
Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so all you need is the space.
We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.
For event organisers in Lavendon
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
Your questions about a hog roast in Lavendon
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Michael?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do you come out to small places like Lavendon?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What meats can we have?
The hog is the centrepiece, but lamb and chicken can be added.
Can you work around our timings?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
What space does the roaster need?
A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A photo helps.
What happens when we hire a hog roast?
We handle the roasting, carving and serving. Just give us an outdoor spot to cook.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
The process
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Late September evenings in Lavendon lose the light at about 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:50pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
- Our chef carves to order and our staff serve at the agreed time.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
Getting ready for the day
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Let us know about tight access

What a hog roast costs
The price comes down to:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Whether you want china
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The journey to the venue
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What we need to know
To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The date and time of the event
- Rough numbers
- Which meats and sides you’d like
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Send us your details through our quote form.
