Book a hog roast in Nuptown
Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
How our hog roast hire works in Nuptown
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. Whether it’s corporate events and big birthdays and anniversaries, we’ll put together a menu of salads, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken.
For a rural spot like Nuptown, a hog roast feels right at home. Tell us about gates, tracks and the ground. The hog is roasted on site at your event, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

Your questions about a hog roast in Nuptown
Which station is closest to Nuptown?
The closest is Bracknell station, roughly 3 miles away.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Michael and All Angels: 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.
Can we have lamb or chicken?
Pork is the classic, and you can add spit-roast lamb or rotisserie chicken. There are vegetarian and vegan options as well.
Do we need our own staff?
You don’t need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
What happens when we hire a hog roast?
You choose the date, the menu and the serving time; we do the rest. Just give us an outdoor spot to cook.
Do you come to Nuptown?
Yes, Nuptown is in our area. Send us the address and we will check the date.
The menu, dish by dish
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, and it’s carved the same way.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Prices and what affects them
Here’s what affects the price:
- Menu choices and extras
- Season and day of the week
- Crockery choices
- The number of people
Travel matters for the price: travel is included in your quote. Tell us the exact address for an accurate figure.
Getting an accurate quote
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- Dietary requirements
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- The venue or postcode
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we’ll quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Fill in our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
Slow roasting needs attention, which is our job, not yours. You can relax and enjoy the day.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal, and they’re listed in your quote.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Next to 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 generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why us?
- Cooked on the day, low and slow
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Carved to order by a chef

The process
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Nuptown, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
Before we arrive
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
