About our hog roast hire in South Newington
We provide a fully catered hog roast: we roast, our chef carves and our staff serve. For confident cooks, the machine can be hired on its own. We’re frequently asked to cater garden parties and barbecues and Fêtes, fairs and shows, serving spit-roast lamb, coleslaw and halloumi skewers.
For a rural spot like South Newington, a hog roast feels right at home. Let us know about access and ground conditions. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

South Newington: your questions answered
Is South Newington close to London?
Roughly 66 miles from the centre of London.
We are gathering after a service at St Peter ad Vincula: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
Can we have lamb or chicken?
The hog is the centrepiece, but lamb and chicken can be added.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. We will explain the details with your quote.
Can we choose catered or DIY?
We offer full catering and DIY machine hire. Your quote will set out what’s included.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We’ll bring the rest.
What happens in bad weather?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
How the day works
When we arrive, 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. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around South Newington, it stays light until about 9:30pm at midsummer, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We look at the cooking area and send a price.
- We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve.
- We pack away and leave you to it.
How to prepare
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Have a level outdoor spot ready

Planning help
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Planning for dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Find out who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
Let us know if the day runs late: we can hold the roast for a while.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, quoted separately.
