Hog roast hire in Nuneham Courtenay, carved to order
A hog roast is one of the simplest ways to feed a crowd in Nuneham Courtenay: a single slow roast, carved to order. We bring the roaster, the cover and the serving kit, and we serve and tidy up afterwards. Popular choices include crackling, spit-roast lamb and new potatoes, and we’re often booked for staff days and open days and community events.
In a hamlet or village like Nuneham Courtenay, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.

Nuneham Courtenay: your questions answered
Is Nuneham Courtenay close to London?
Roughly 49 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Peter: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
When should we book?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it’s always worth asking: use our quote form.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Will people get crackling?
It is: slow roasting crisps the skin and we break it up for everyone.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.

Should I cook it myself?

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.

Looking after everyone
Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
We will agree a contact for the day, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for anyone who needs them.
A closer look at the menu
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Light matters for a long roast: in Nuneham Courtenay, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.

- 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.

Planning help
For planners, venues and organisers
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
A hog roast compared with other options
Full catering or machine hire? With catering we roast, carve and serve; with hire you do the cooking. Most hosts choose catering for anything bigger than a family party. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
