Hog roast hire for Souldern
How our hog roast hire works in Souldern
There’s nothing quite like the smell of a hog roast drifting across a garden or field. We roast slowly on site in Souldern, then serve it in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. We serve halloumi skewers, hog roast rolls and salads, and we’re regularly asked to cater wakes and corporate events.
In a hamlet or village like Souldern, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish before you book.

Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Find out who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, then clear up.
A second roast, lamb or chicken, gives people a choice.

Questions from Souldern
Is Souldern too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
What’s the nearest station to Souldern?
Kings Sutton station, about 3.4 miles north-west of the centre.
Can you work around our timings?
Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll adjust.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
Can you cater in Souldern?
Yes, Souldern is in our area. Send us the address and we’ll check the date.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
How do you work out quantities?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
How the day works
The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Around midsummer it stays light in Souldern until about 9:30pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
- 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 set up on the agreed spot and start roasting.
- At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
