Hog roast hire in Lewknor, carved to order
There is nothing quite like the smell of a hog roast drifting across a garden or field. We cook at your venue in Lewknor, low and slow, then serve it in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. On the menu are coleslaw, rotisserie chicken and salads, and we’re regularly asked to cater weddings, day or evening and birthdays and anniversaries.
Somewhere like Lewknor, a yard or firm field frequently works. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a cold buffet, a hog roast is hot, freshly carved and feels like an occasion. A buffet can sit out all afternoon. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why book with us
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside

- 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.

Full catering or machine hire?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Questions from Lewknor
Do you cater at venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Is Lewknor close to London?
Roughly 39 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can you cater in Lewknor?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will confirm availability.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Is all of Oxfordshire covered?

What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Is our garden big enough?
It depends on the space and access more than size. Describe the space and we will tell you honestly.

Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Put the menu on the invitation
Expect us to be on site for much of the day, because the roast starts hours before you eat.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.
Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Access for our equipment, without steps
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
