About the food

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

Some guests will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.

About our hog roast hire in Peppard Hill

In Peppard Hill, we cater birthdays, weddings, staff days and fêtes. Whatever the occasion, the format is the same: a slow roast on site, carved fresh and served by our team. We serve hog roast rolls, new potatoes and spit-roast lamb, and we are regularly asked to cater wedding breakfasts and evening food and christmas parties.

Somewhere as small as Peppard Hill, a field, yard or garden is frequently the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and level, firm ground is the key. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish.

Why choose a hog roast in Peppard Hill?

Next to a buffet, a hog roast is hot, freshly carved and feels like an occasion. Buffets can sit out for hours. Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Tell us the exact address for an accurate figure.

Why us?

  • All the equipment comes with us
  • A choice of salads and potatoes
  • Choices for people who do not eat pork
  • Planned to your running order

Read our prices page or the cost guide.

Looking after everyone

Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information
  • Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • Put the menu on the invitation
  • Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages

We’ll be with you for a good part of the day, because the roast starts hours before you eat.

We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.

Step by step

Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. Evenings in Peppard Hill stay light until about 9:25pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:10pm; after dark, the serving area and the path to it need good lighting.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
  3. We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
  4. We carve and serve when you’re ready to eat.
  5. We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.

Preparing for the day

  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
  • Give us final numbers a week or so before
  • Give us a contact number for the day

Your questions about a hog roast in Peppard Hill

What’s the nearest station to Peppard Hill?

The closest is Henley-On-Thames station, roughly 3.9 miles away.

We are gathering after a service at The Church of Christ the King: can you cater?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.

Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?

Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.

Can you do gluten-free?

Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing usually contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

How soon do you get booked up?

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.

Do we need to provide electricity?

No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.

What space does the roaster need?

A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will confirm the space with your quote.

Can you cater in Peppard Hill?

Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Peppard Hill and the rest of Oxfordshire included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

Working with your venue

Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

If you are a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team.

Prices and what affects them

We don’t use a fixed price list, because every event is different. What matters most:

  • The date and time of year
  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • How many people are eating
  • Crockery choices

A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

What to tell us

The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Useful details:

  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • The address or postcode
  • The date and time of the event
  • A picture of the cooking area

Numbers not final yet? Give us your best estimate and we will quote on that, and you can confirm nearer the time. Send us your details through our quote form.

Should I cook it myself?

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
