Hog roast hire in Privett
About our hog roast hire in Privett
A hog roast is one of the simplest ways to feed a crowd in Privett: a single slow roast, carved to order. We bring the roaster, the cover and the serving kit, and our staff serve and clear. Typical bookings include club events and presentations and community events, serving rotisserie chicken, crackling and new potatoes.
For a place the size of Privett, your own garden is frequently 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. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.
Planning a hog roast in Privett
Privett is about 1 mile south-west of Gosport, in Hampshire. We cater events of every size in Privett. Privett is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire we cover. Our nearest city page is Southampton, about 13 miles away.
For anyone arriving by rail, Portsmouth Harbour station is about 2.3 miles away. Churches such as St Faith's Church rarely have room for a roaster, but a hall or home close by usually does. Privett is within about 4 miles of the sea, and sea breezes can be strong. We plan a sheltered cooking spot on windy days.
Events anywhere in PO12 and PO13 start with an outdoor spot for the roaster and a serving time. Your event could be at a house on Bay Road, Gomer Lane and Vectis Road or the roads around them, as long as there’s somewhere outside to cook.

Allergies and dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
We’ll be with you for a good part of the day, because the roast starts hours before you eat.
Prefer to cook yourself? Ask about DIY machine hire.
