Hog roast hire in Quarley, carved to order
It is a simple format that suits most crowds: roast pork in a soft roll, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, and alternatives for anyone who does not eat pork. On the menu are halloumi skewers, coleslaw and hog roast rolls, and we are frequently booked for wakes and Fêtes, fairs and shows.
For a rural spot like Quarley, a hog roast feels right at home. Let us know about access and ground conditions. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
Other occasions in Quarley
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Next to a formal plated meal, a hog roast doesn’t need a kitchen, which usually keeps the cost down. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
Why book with us

What the cooking area needs
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:
- A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
- Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
Everything for serving comes with us, so you only need to provide the space.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
