Hog roast hire for your event in Molash
With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it is served. Add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options if you like. Typical bookings include christmas parties and weddings, day or evening, with new potatoes, hog roast rolls and salads.

Your quote depends on:

Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups usually cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.

The process
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. By late September, sunset in Molash is around 7:00pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:50pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We look at the cooking area and send a price.
- We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We clear up and go.
How to prepare
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
How to get a price
Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Send us your details through our quote form.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
We’ll agree a contact for the day, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.
A second roast, lamb or chicken, gives people a choice.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
