About our hog roast hire in Little Ann
Slow-roasted pork carved to order: that is hog roast hire in Little Ann. Rolls, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling come as standard, and you can add sides and other meats. Popular choices include rotisserie chicken, salads and new potatoes, and we are regularly asked to cater wedding breakfasts and evening food and sports clubs and societies.
Somewhere as small as Little Ann, a field, yard or garden is often the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm, level ground matters most. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
The process
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. Light matters for a long roast: in Little Ann, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 4:00pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
How to prepare
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Gather dietary requirements early

Your questions about a hog roast in Little Ann
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary the Virgin: can you cater?
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 usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do you come out to small places like Little Ann?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do we need a big space?
Often, yes, if there is a level, open spot away from the house and trees, and a way to wheel the equipment through. Send us a photo.
How soon do you get booked up?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you cover Little Ann?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll check the date.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could go for a cold buffet, 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. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing are the traditional pairing. Stuffing normally contains gluten.

Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.

- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
