About our hog roast hire in Ruislip Manor
Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, for hours, under a gazebo outside. Then our chef carves it and the team serves it in rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. We are often asked to cater big birthdays and anniversaries and summer garden parties, serving halloumi skewers, crackling and coleslaw.
Gardens in Ruislip Manor tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, so clearance from fences and windows matters most. Warn the neighbours: the roast cooks for hours. The hog is roasted on site at your event, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

What happens on the day
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat. Light matters for a long roast: around Ruislip Manor, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- Our chef carves to order and our staff serve at the agreed time.

Could you cook in Church Field Gardens?

Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Ruislip Manor?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard generally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
