Hog roast hire in Ravenstone
About our hog roast hire in Ravenstone
We roast the hog at your event, not in a kitchen miles away, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it’s served. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. Popular choices include spit-roast lamb, coleslaw and hog roast rolls, and we’re frequently booked for parties at home and birthdays and anniversaries.
In a small place like Ravenstone, a hog roast frequently goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and firm, level ground matters most. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Put the menu on the invitation
You will not need to worry about the food on the day. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, then clear up.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal.
How we price a hog roast
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Time on site
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Crockery choices
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Getting an accurate quote
To check the date and the space, we’ll need:
- What the outdoor space is like
- The date and time of the event
- Roughly how many people
- Rules from the venue or landowner
We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your event: use our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we will confirm what we can provide.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a barbecue, one roast feeds everyone at once, instead of food coming off the grill in batches. Our guide compares the two. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Why book our hog roast in Ravenstone
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

Your questions about a hog roast in Ravenstone
Is Ravenstone close to London?
Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of All Saints: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
Do you bring plates?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Can you cater in Ravenstone?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Ravenstone and the rest of Milton Keynes included. Send us the address for a quote.
Is crackling included?
It is: the skin turns to crackling and everyone gets some.
Is it just pork?
Pork is the classic, and you can add spit-roast lamb or rotisserie chicken. There are vegetarian and vegan options as well.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we will bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb is popular alongside the pork, especially for guests who do not eat pork.

What the cooking area needs
It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Cover for your guests in bad weather
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
