Hog roast hire for Sinkhurst Green
Hog roast hire in Sinkhurst Green, carved to order
Hiring a hog roast means a whole hog cooked slowly on site, for hours, under a gazebo outside. Then our chef carves it and the team serves it in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and a piece of crackling. We are frequently asked to cater weddings, day or evening and parties at home, serving halloumi skewers, coleslaw and spit-roast lamb.
In a small place like Sinkhurst Green, 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 plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
About the food
Spit-roast lamb
Lamb on the spit roasts gently for hours, and it is carved the same way.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, roasted until golden.
Questions from Sinkhurst Green
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
How far is Sinkhurst Green from London?
About 38 miles from central London, and well within our area.
How do we prepare?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
How does hog roast hire work?
We roast on site, carve to order and serve, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.

What about guests who do not eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
The roaster needs looking after for hours, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.
What happens on the day
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We will agree the spot with you beforehand.
