Hog roast hire in Middle Wallop, carved to order
Hiring a hog roast means a whole hog cooked slowly on site, over several hours, outdoors under cover. When it is ready, our chef carves it and our staff serve it in soft rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and a piece of crackling. For wakes and memorial gatherings and christmas parties, we’ll put together a menu of spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers for your guests.
In a small place like Middle Wallop, a hog roast often goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and level, firm ground is the key. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
Common questions in Middle Wallop
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Andrew?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.

About 69 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
The roaster needs looking after for hours, and that is what we are there for. You can get on with your event.
We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.
