How our hog roast hire works in Saunderton
A whole hog, roasted for hours and carved in front of your guests: that is what you get when you book a hog roast in Saunderton. Rolls, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling come as standard, and you can add sides and other meats. Typical bookings include weddings, day or evening and milestone birthdays, serving new potatoes, crackling and halloumi skewers.
In a small place like Saunderton, a hog roast often goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and level, firm ground is the key. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you’re not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a buffet, a hog roast is hot, freshly carved and feels like an occasion. A buffet can sit out all afternoon. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Why book with us
- Timed around your day
- All the equipment comes with us
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to

How we price a hog roast
The price comes down to:
- Numbers
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- Whether you want china
- Season and day of the week
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups usually cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
