How our hog roast hire works in Segensworth
The smell of roasting pork is half the appeal. We roast slowly on site in Segensworth, then serve it in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Typical bookings include wakes and memorial gatherings and christmas parties, serving new potatoes, crackling and hog roast rolls.
Somewhere as small as Segensworth, a field, yard or garden is often the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and level, firm ground is the key. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will tell you exactly what’s in each dish.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. 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.
What you get with us
- Timed around your day
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork

What happens on the day
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking does not depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Late September evenings in Segensworth lose the light at about 7:10pm, and in December it is nearer 4:00pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.

Should I cook it myself?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee suppliers generally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before booking. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Allergies and dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
We will be with you for a good part of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
China crockery is available on request, at an extra cost.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
