Hog roast hire in Stonecrouch, slow-roasted on site
A hog roast is one of the simplest ways to feed a crowd in Stonecrouch: a single slow roast, carved to order. We bring the roaster, the cover and the serving kit, and we serve and tidy up afterwards. Typical bookings include festive gatherings and clubhouse events, serving crackling, coleslaw and hog roast rolls.
In a rural place like Stonecrouch, roast pork in a field is hard to beat. Let us know about access and ground conditions. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

Full catering or machine hire?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
How we price a hog roast
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- The number of people
- Season and day of the week
- The journey to the venue
A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
What to tell us
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Allergies we should know about
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- What the outdoor space is like
- Your date and serving time

If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. Other tips:
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, then clear up.
