About our hog roast hire in Prestwood

In Prestwood, we cater birthdays, weddings, staff days and fêtes. The idea is always the same: a slow roast on site, carved fresh and served by our team. Whether it’s sports clubs and societies and milestone birthdays, we’ll put together a menu of crackling, spit-roast lamb and coleslaw and more.

For a place the size of Prestwood, your own garden is often the best venue: plenty of room, no hire fees and nobody stuck in the kitchen. Tell us about access down the drive or side of the house. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Your questions about a hog roast in Prestwood

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.

Which station is closest to Prestwood?

Great Missenden station, about 1.2 miles east of the centre.

Do you provide china?

We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.

Do you do DIY hog roast hire?

Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.

When should we book?

As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.

Is hog roast hire catered or DIY?

We offer full catering and DIY machine hire. We will explain what’s included in each when we quote.

Can you roast in the rain?

The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.

Do you serve the food?

We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.

About the food

Stuffing and apple sauce

Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll, just as they should.

Spit-roast lamb

With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which suits bigger events.

Full catering or machine hire?

You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Events we cater in Prestwood

You do not need much on your side: just an outdoor spot for the roaster. We bring the rest.

We’re regularly asked to cater a wide mix of occasions near Prestwood, including:

  • Village fêtes and school fairs
  • Club events and presentations
  • Weddings, day or evening
  • Gatherings after a funeral

If you’re gathering after a service at a church like Holy Trinity Church, a nearby hall or garden suits a hog roast.

How we price a hog roast

There’s no fixed price list, since every event is different. What matters most:

  • Numbers
  • Crockery choices
  • Distance from us
  • Site access

Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.

What to tell us

To get the best quote, tell us:

  • The date and time of the event
  • Rough numbers
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • What the outdoor space is like

For a quote, send us a few details: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Send us your details through our quote form.

Before you choose a spot

The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:

  • A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
  • Any venue rules sorted in advance
  • Cover for your guests in bad weather

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:

  • Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
  • Put the menu on the invitation
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list

On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, then clear up.

A second roast, lamb or chicken, gives people a choice.

Planners, venues and businesses

If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

How it works

From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can get on with your event. Light matters for a long roast: around Prestwood, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm.

  1. We start with a few details about your event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
  4. We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
  5. Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.

How to prepare

  • Have a level outdoor spot ready
  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival
  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
