Slow-roasted pork in Middleton-on-Sea

Hog roast hire in Middleton-on-Sea, carved to order

We roast the hog at your event, not in a kitchen miles away, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it is served. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. Popular choices include new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and coleslaw, and typical bookings are for work summer parties and weddings, day or evening.

In and around Middleton-on-Sea, gardens and village halls are common choices. If the lane is narrow, tell us so we can plan our vehicle. The hog is roasted on site at your event, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

What happens on the day

The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin turns into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. Light matters for a long roast: in Middleton-on-Sea, sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, but by late December it’s dark by about 4:00pm.

  1. First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
  3. On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and start roasting.
  4. At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
  5. We clear the serving area and pack away.

Before we arrive

  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Give us a contact number for the day

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.

Prices and what affects them

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • The journey to the venue
  • Season and day of the week
  • Numbers

Travel matters for the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.

Getting an accurate quote

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • Any venue rules
  • The address or postcode
  • A photo of the cooking area

Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Send us your date for a quote: send us your details through our quote form.
