Hog roast hire for Mursley
Hog roast hire in Mursley, carved to order
Booking a hog roast means you don’t have to cook. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, ready to carve when you are. We’re frequently asked to cater village fêtes and school fairs and festive gatherings, with new potatoes, crackling and coleslaw.
Somewhere like Mursley, a yard or firm field often works. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

Organising for someone else?
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
A spoonful of apple sauce and a slice of stuffing make the roll.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with food vans, a hog roast feeds a crowd quickly from one roast, with no waiting for individual orders to cook. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
What you get with us
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- A choice of salads and potatoes

Common questions in Mursley
Which station is closest to Mursley?
Bletchley station, about 4.5 miles north-east of the centre.
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
How long does the roast need?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Is hog roast hire catered or DIY?
We offer full catering and DIY machine hire. Your quote will set out what’s included.
How big a hog will we need?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
Expect us to be on site for much of the day, because the roast starts hours before you eat.
Prefer to cook yourself? Ask about DIY machine hire.
Prices and what affects them
Each price is built from:
- Distance from us
- Menu choices and extras
- The date and time of year
- How many people are eating
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Getting an accurate quote
The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:
- Allergies we should know about
- Roughly how many people
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- The address or postcode
Busy weekends book up early, so ask early for summer Saturdays and December. Tell us your date and we will check it: send us your details through our quote form.
Should I cook it myself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

How it works
When we arrive, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. By late September, sunset in Mursley is around 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. 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 availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Getting ready for the day
- Send final numbers in good time
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
