Hog roast hire in Sulhamstead, slow-roasted on site
It’s a simple format that suits most crowds: roast pork in a soft roll, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, and alternatives for anyone who doesn’t eat pork. We’re often asked to cater gatherings after a funeral and work summer parties, with hog roast rolls, salads and rotisserie chicken.
In a small place like Sulhamstead, a hog roast frequently goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and level, firm ground is the key. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
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.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan guests can have a vegan burger or sausage, so everyone has something hot.
Allergies and dietary needs
Some guests will not eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
We’ll agree a contact for the day, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, quoted separately.
