How our hog roast hire works in Newbury's
With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, which means it’s carved hot, with crisp crackling. Add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options if you like. On the menu are new potatoes, coleslaw and salads, and we’re regularly asked to cater wakes and wedding breakfasts and evening food.
In a small place like Newbury's, a hog roast frequently goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and firm, level ground matters most. You will know what’s included before you book: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.

A hog roast compared with other options
Next to a street-food van, a hog roast serves a lot of people from one roast. Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why us?
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- A clear quote with everything listed

How we price a hog roast
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- The date and time of year
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Menu choices and extras
- Time on site
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Details that help
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Where the event is
- A picture of the cooking area
Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.

The process
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. Evenings in Newbury's stay light until about 9:15pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:00pm; after dark, the serving area and the path to it need good lighting.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

What comes off the roaster
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan guests can have a vegan burger or sausage, so everyone has something hot.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.
Should I cook it myself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
