Slow-roasted pork in Lyneham
Hog roast hire in Lyneham, slow-roasted on site
Our hog roast hire is fully catered: we roast, our chef carves and our staff serve. For confident cooks, the machine can be hired on its own. For wedding breakfasts and evening food and Fêtes, fairs and shows, we’ll put together a menu of spit-roast lamb, salads and new potatoes.
Somewhere like Lyneham, a yard or firm field often works. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls.

How it works
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can get on with your event in Lyneham. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Lyneham, it stays light until about 9:30pm at midsummer, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the space and quote.
- We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We clear up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Give us final numbers a week or so before

Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Tips:
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
The roaster needs looking after for hours, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Questions from Lyneham
Which station is closest to Lyneham?
Shipton station, about 1.1 miles south of the centre.
Is Lyneham too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?
Frequently, yes, if there is a level, open spot away from the house and trees, as long as we can get the equipment in. A photo helps us check.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We’ll bring the rest.
What happens when we hire a hog roast?
We bring the roaster, roast the hog on site for hours, then our chef carves it and our staff serve, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: fill in our quote form.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Should I cook it myself?
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.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.

A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a street-food van, a hog roast serves a lot of people from one roast. The main driver is numbers: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

About the food
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it’s needed, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.
Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every event is different. What matters most:
- Crockery choices
- Travel to Lyneham
- Site access
- Numbers
Midweek and quieter months are frequently easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
