Hog roast hire in Milland, carved to order
We provide a fully catered hog roast: roasting, carving and serving are all done for you. If you’d rather do it yourself, we also hire out the machine. We’re frequently asked to cater corporate events and weddings and receptions, serving crackling, coleslaw and salads.
In a small place like Milland, a hog roast often goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and level, firm ground is the key. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Looking after everyone
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so all you need is the space.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
How it works
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. Late September evenings in Milland lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 4:00pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- On the day, we set up on the agreed spot and start roasting.
- At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
Before we arrive
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Gather dietary requirements early
