Book a hog roast in Spanish Green
Hog roast hire in Spanish Green, carved to order
Booking a hog roast means you do not have to cook. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, then carve and serve at the time you choose. We serve hog roast rolls, halloumi skewers and spit-roast lamb, and we are frequently booked for wedding breakfasts and evening food and festive gatherings.
In a hamlet or village like Spanish Green, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
Questions from Spanish Green
Is Spanish Green too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is Spanish Green close to London?
Roughly 41 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is normally fine if the venue is happy.
What meats can we have?
Add lamb or rotisserie chicken alongside the pork. Vegetarian and vegan options are available too.
How does hog roast hire work?
You choose the date, the menu and the serving time; we do the rest. Just give us an outdoor spot to cook.
Do you cook it or do we?
You can have us cook, or hire the machine. We will explain what’s included in each when we quote.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Is a hog roast right for your event?
Next to a street-food van, a hog roast feeds a crowd quickly from one roast, with no waiting for individual orders to cook. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why book with us

Planning the cooking spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Things to check:
- Access for our equipment, without steps
- Cover for your guests in bad weather
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
Slow roasting needs attention, and that is what we’re there for. You can relax and enjoy the day.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for anyone who needs them.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The date and time of year
- Distance from us
A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
What to tell us
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Your date and serving time
- A picture of the cooking area
- Which meats and sides you’d like
Every quote lists the menu, the serving time, staff and plates, so it is easy to compare like for like. Use our quote form.
About the food
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children typically like it too.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.

How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. In Spanish Green, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 4:00pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
- We carve and serve when you are ready to eat.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
How to prepare
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
How to get a price
It’s easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Use our quote form.

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
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.
