Hog roast hire around Norton Green

Norton Green is about 5 miles south of Lymington, in the Isle of Wight. Norton Green and the surrounding area are covered for events. Norton Green is one of 125 places in the Isle of Wight where we cater. Our nearest city page is Southampton, about 16 miles away.

If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like All Saints Church of England Primary School, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser. Nearby historic houses include Mottistone Manor (4.9 miles south-east). Historic venues frequently limit cooking on site, so ask early if you are booking one. Norton Green is within about 2 miles of the sea, and coastal sites can be windy. We plan a sheltered cooking spot on windy days.

For events in PO40, we just need to know where the roaster can cook. From Norton Green and Pixley Hill or anywhere nearby, we can set up and roast there. Other places close to Norton Green we cover include Freshwater (1 mile south), Colwell (1 mile south-west), Easton (1 mile south), Totland (1 mile south-west) and Afton (1 mile south). We also serve nearby towns such as Newport (10 miles east), Cowes (10 miles north-east), Ventnor (15 miles south-east), East Cowes (11 miles east), Barton (10 miles east) and Hunny Hill (10 miles east).

For event organisers in Norton Green

If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.

If you are booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We will fit in with site rules.

What happens on the day

Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Norton Green, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 4:05pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We look at the cooking area and send a price.
  3. We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve.
  5. We pack away and leave you to it.

How to prepare

  • Name a contact for the day
  • Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Put the menu on the invitation
  • If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them

Expect us to be on site for much of the day, because the roast starts hours before you eat.

Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

What the cooking area needs

Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:

  • Permission from the venue or landowner
  • Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
  • A safe distance from walls, tents and trees

For somewhere as remote as Norton Green, early notice helps us plan the trip.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

Next to a buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. A buffet can sit out all afternoon. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
  • Timed around your day
  • Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
  • Roasted on site, slowly, for hours

See our prices page and the cost guide.

Questions from Norton Green

What about windy coastal sites?

Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.

Which station is closest to Norton Green?

The closest is Lymington Pier station, roughly 4.5 miles away.

Do you cook it or do we?

We offer full catering and DIY machine hire. We’ll explain what’s included in each when we quote.

Do you leave the area tidy?

We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.

Will people get crackling?

Of course: the skin turns to crackling and everyone gets some.

How soon do you get booked up?

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can frequently be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we will check.

What should we sort out beforehand?

Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.

What if things run late?

We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

Should I cook it myself?

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
