Slow-roasted pork in Lillingstone Lovell
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
A hog roast has one downside: it is pork. That’s why we offer lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why us?
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Serving and clearing done for you

Hog roast hire for your event in Lillingstone Lovell
With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it is served. Add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options if you like. We’re often asked to cater christmas parties and milestone birthdays, with crackling, hog roast rolls and spit-roast lamb.
In a small place like Lillingstone Lovell, a hog roast frequently 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. You’ll know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.

Should I cook it myself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
Expect us to be on site for much of the day, because the roast starts hours before you eat.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for anyone who needs them.
What comes off the roaster
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children usually like it too.
For event organisers in Lillingstone Lovell
Venues often have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
What happens on the day
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. In Lillingstone Lovell, the sun sets at about 9:30pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

FAQs for Lillingstone Lovell
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Is Lillingstone Lovell close to London?
Roughly 54 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
How does hog roast hire work?
We bring the roaster, roast the hog on site for hours, then our chef carves it and our staff serve, in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do you provide china?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
What about guests who do not eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. We don’t provide halal meat.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.
What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Any venue rules sorted in advance
- A way to wheel the roaster to the spot
- Cover for your guests in bad weather
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
