Hog roast hire in Stubbington, slow-roasted on site
There is nothing quite like the smell of a hog roast drifting across a garden or field. We cook at your venue in Stubbington, low and slow, then serve it in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Typical bookings include clubhouse events and wakes and memorial gatherings, with salads, new potatoes and halloumi skewers.
A place like Stubbington frequently has a village hall, a recreation ground or a pub garden nearby; any can host a hog roast with permission. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Planning on behalf of a committee? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.

Stubbington questions
We’re gathering after a service at Holy Rood Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Can you cater in Stubbington?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Stubbington and the rest of Hampshire included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
When should we book?
As early as you can for summer weekends and December. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Send your date and we’ll check.
How much room do you need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Do we need to provide electricity?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so all you need is the space.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
