Hog roast hire in Lymore
Hog roast hire in Lymore, slow-roasted on site
We roast the hog at your event, not in a kitchen miles away, which means it is carved hot, with crisp crackling. Add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options if you like. For weddings and receptions and big birthdays and anniversaries, we can cook crackling, new potatoes and spit-roast lamb and more.
Somewhere as small as Lymore, a field, yard or garden is often the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and level, firm ground is the key. Timings are planned around your event, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
Name someone to meet us, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Catered or DIY? With catering we roast, carve and serve; with hire you do the cooking. For bigger events, catering is normally the easier choice. The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why us?
- Sides to make it a full meal
- All the equipment comes with us
- Planned to your running order
- Carved to order by a chef

How we price a hog roast
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every event is different. The main factors are:
- Distance from us
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Time on site
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Details that help
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- Any venue rules
- Roughly how many people
- A photo of the cooking area
- Any dietary needs or allergies
Every event is quoted on its own, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.
