About our hog roast hire in Priestwood
In Priestwood, 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. On the menu are new potatoes, crackling and salads, and we’re regularly asked to cater weddings, day or evening and gatherings after a funeral.
For a place the size of Priestwood, your own garden is often the best venue: space to cook, no venue hire and no cooking for you. Tell us about access down the drive or side of the house. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
The roaster needs looking after for hours, which is our job, not yours. You can relax and enjoy the day.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
How the day works
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can get on with your event. In Priestwood, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
- Afterwards we clear up and leave the spot tidy.
How to prepare
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Should I cook it myself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
