About our hog roast hire in Marsh Gibbon
A hog roast is one of the simplest ways to feed a crowd in Marsh Gibbon: one roast, slow-cooked for hours, carved in front of everyone. Everything comes with us, and our staff serve and clear. We’re frequently asked to cater weddings and receptions and Fêtes, fairs and shows, with hog roast rolls, spit-roast lamb and coleslaw.
Somewhere as small as Marsh Gibbon, a field, yard or garden is often the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and firm, level ground matters most. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.

Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Parking near the spot
- Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Marsh Gibbon: your questions answered
Is Marsh Gibbon too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. Buffets can sit out for hours. Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.
Why book our hog roast in Marsh Gibbon
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
Take a look at our prices page and the cost guide.
Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
A closer look at the menu
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
Spit-roast lamb
Adding lamb gives people a choice of two roasts, which works well for larger groups.
