How our hog roast hire works in Little Ickford
In Little Ickford, we cater birthdays, weddings, staff days and fêtes. Whatever the occasion, the format is the same: a slow roast on site, carved fresh and served by our team. On the menu are halloumi skewers, rotisserie chicken and salads, and we’re often booked for festive gatherings and weddings and receptions.
In a rural place like Little Ickford, roast pork in a field is hard to beat. Let us know about access and ground conditions. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Full catering or machine hire?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
What happens on the day
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Around midsummer it stays light in Little Ickford until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- 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.
- We pack away and leave you to it.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

How we price a hog roast
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Numbers
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What to tell us
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- The venue or postcode
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Dietary requirements
- Your menu choices
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so you can compare caterers fairly. Fill in our quote form.
For planners, venues and organisers
Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Tell us what you need and we’ll tell you what we can send.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone, instead of food coming off the grill in batches. Our guide compares the two. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
