Hog roast hire for your event in Nash Street
With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it’s served. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside.

Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone, so nobody stands at a grill all afternoon. Our guide compares the two. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

How we price a hog roast
There is no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Season and day of the week
- Plates or china
- How easy it is to reach the spot
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

To check availability and the cooking area, we will need:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Where the event is
- Roughly how many people
- Dietary requirements
Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. You’ll get a clear quote listing what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
Looking after everyone
Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so all you need is the space.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal, and they’re listed in your quote.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
