Book a hog roast in Leverton

Hog roast hire in Leverton, carved to order

Booking a hog roast means you do not have to cook. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, then carve and serve at the time you choose. On the menu are salads, halloumi skewers and crackling, and typical bookings are for weddings, day or evening and wakes and memorial gatherings.

In a hamlet or village like Leverton, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.

What happens on the day

We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Evenings in Leverton 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, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
  3. On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
  4. At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
  5. We clear the serving area and pack away.

How to prepare

  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
  • Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

Planners, venues and businesses

For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.

Should I cook it myself?

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

The obvious catch is that a hog roast is pork. That is why we offer lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option for anyone who does not eat it. 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 you get with us

  • Served at the time you choose
  • A clear quote with everything listed
  • Cooked on the day, low and slow
  • A choice of salads and potatoes

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:

  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed

We will be with you for a good part of the day, since slow roasting starts early.

Ask for gluten-free rolls for anyone who needs them.
