Hog roast hire for your event in Madley Park
With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, which means it is carved hot, with crisp crackling. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. For staff days and open days and birthdays and anniversaries, we’ll put together a menu of new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls for your guests.
In and around Madley Park, gardens and village halls are common choices. If access is tight, we will plan around it. The hog is roasted on site at your event, slowly, over several hours.

Organisers may ask for documents such as a risk assessment or gas safety information. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.

A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a formal plated meal, a hog roast does not need a kitchen, which usually keeps the cost down. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Why book our hog roast in Madley Park

Should I cook it myself?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
What a hog roast costs
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- Crockery choices
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Which meats and sides you choose
The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.

Your questions about a hog roast in Madley Park
Can you cater after a service at Church of Holy Trinity?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
What’s the nearest station to Madley Park?
The closest is Combe station, roughly 4.1 miles away.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will talk it through when we quote.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Send us the details and we will quote.
Will people get crackling?
Yes, the crackling is shared out as we carve.
What about coeliacs?
Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. You’ll get allergen details for everything.

How the day works
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Around midsummer it stays light in Madley Park until about 9:30pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
