Hog roast hire for your event in Nutbourne
Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, for hours, under a gazebo outside. When it is ready, our chef carves it and our staff serve it in soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Whether it’s weddings, day or evening and club events and presentations, we’ll put together a menu of coleslaw, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls for your guests.
In a small place like Nutbourne, a hog roast often goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and firm, level ground matters most. We plan the timings around your day, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Should I cook it myself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
Everything for serving comes with us, so you only need to provide the space.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast.
