Slow-roasted pork in Stoke Lyne
About our hog roast hire in Stoke Lyne
The smell of roasting pork is half the appeal. We roast slowly on site in Stoke Lyne, then carve the pork into rolls with all the trimmings. Whether it’s clubhouse events and milestone birthdays, we will put together a menu of coleslaw, spit-roast lamb and halloumi skewers.
In a hamlet or village like Stoke Lyne, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

Common questions in Stoke Lyne
How far is Stoke Lyne from London?
Roughly 56 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
Is Stoke Lyne too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you travel across Oxfordshire?
Oxfordshire is part of our area. Ask for a quote.
How long does the roast need?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What comes with the hog roast?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Is our garden big enough?
Access and clearance matter more than size. Tell us about the garden and we will advise.
Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
The roaster needs looking after for hours, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
What a hog roast costs
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- Site access
- Travel to Stoke Lyne
- Season and day of the week
- Numbers
Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Details that help
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Rough numbers
We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your event: use our quote form.
Space, access and the venue
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
- A safe distance from walls, tents and trees
- Permission from the venue or landowner
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Organising for someone else?

How the day works
Slow roasting is the whole point: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. Evenings in Stoke Lyne stay light until about 9:30pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:10pm; once it is dark, we need light at the carving station.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Think about shelter for your guests

Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
