DIY versus a catered hog roast

The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Hog roast hire in Milton, slow-roasted on site

Slow-roasted pork carved to order: that is what you get when you book a hog roast in Milton. The classic roll comes with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, and you can add sides and other meats. Whether it is community events and birthdays and anniversaries, we will put together a menu of halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and coleslaw for your guests.

In a small place like Milton, 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 leave the spot tidy when we go.

What happens on the day

We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. By late September, sunset in Milton is around 7:10pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

  1. First, tell us about your event.
  2. We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
  5. We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.

Before we arrive

  • Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
  • Gather dietary requirements early
  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

What we serve, dish by dish

Rotisserie chicken

For guests who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and it suits fussy eaters.

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Soft rolls hold the pork, stuffing and apple sauce together, easy to eat standing up. Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Looking after everyone

Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Put the menu on the invitation
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
  • We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
  • Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled

Expect us to be on site for much of the day, since slow roasting starts early.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

Planners, venues and businesses

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it’s worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.

What you get with us

  • A choice of salads and potatoes
  • All the equipment comes with us
  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
  • Our staff serve and clear

Milton: your questions answered

What’s the nearest station to Milton?

Appleford station, about 2.5 miles east of the centre.

Can you cater after a service at Church of St Blaise?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.

Do we need a big space?

It depends on the space and access more than size. Tell us about the garden and we’ll advise.

Do you cook it or do we?

Both are available: fully catered, where we roast, carve and serve, or DIY machine hire. Catering is the most popular choice.

What happens when we hire a hog roast?

We handle the roasting, carving and serving. All we need is a place to cook outdoors.

Can you cater in Milton?

Yes, Milton is in our area. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll confirm availability.

Do you offer gluten-free rolls?

Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. You’ll get allergen details for everything.

Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?

The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
