Hog roast hire for Oakley

About our hog roast hire in Oakley

The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: roast pork in a soft roll, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, plus lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan choices if you want them. Popular choices include crackling, rotisserie chicken and hog roast rolls, and we are frequently booked for wakes and memorial gatherings and festive gatherings.

Somewhere as small as Oakley, a field, yard or garden is frequently the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and firm, level ground matters most. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

For planners, venues and organisers

If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.

Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.

Perfect for your event in Oakley

Choosing a hog roast caterer

Space, access and the venue

A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:

  • A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
  • Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we will tell you honestly.

What affects the price in Oakley

Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Whether you want china
  • How many people are eating
  • Time on site
  • The journey to the venue

Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.

What we need to know

When you enquire, it helps to include:

  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • The venue or postcode
  • Any venue rules
  • Your menu choices

Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Send us your details through our quote form.

Oakley: your questions answered

How far is Oakley from London?

About 47 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you come out to small places like Oakley?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

What space does the roaster need?

A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A picture helps.

What is hog roast hire?

We bring the roaster, roast the hog on site for hours, then our chef carves it and our staff serve, in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling.

What meats can we have?

It’s built around the hog, but lamb and chicken can be added.

How much does a hog roast cost?

Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.

Can you cater for vegetarians?

We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not something we offer.

Do you cook it or do we?

Both are available: fully catered, where we roast, carve and serve, or DIY machine hire. Catering is the most popular choice.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet

A hog roast has one downside: it’s pork. That is why we offer lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option for anyone who does not eat it. The main driver is numbers: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

Why book with us

  • Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
  • An itemised quote
  • Carved by our chef in front of your guests
  • Crackling for everyone who wants it
