Hog roast hire around Titchfield
Titchfield is about 2 miles west of Fareham, in Hampshire. Events in Titchfield are part of our patch, as well as the surrounding area. Titchfield is one of 683 places in Hampshire we cover. You can also see our page for Southampton, about 8 miles away.
For a fundraiser at a school like Titchfield Primary School, the roaster can cook on a pitch agreed with the school. Churches such as Church of St Peter rarely have room for a roaster, but a hall or home close by generally does. The coast is within about 4 miles of Titchfield, and coastal sites can be windy. We plan a sheltered cooking spot on windy days.
This part of Hampshire takes in PO14 and PO15. Streets in the area include High Street, Sandy Lane and Garstons Close, and an event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster.

Hog roast hire for your event in Titchfield
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’re frequently asked to cater christmas parties and wakes and memorial gatherings, serving rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls.
Somewhere as small as Titchfield, a field, yard or garden is often the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm, level ground matters most. You will know what’s included before you book: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.
Organising for someone else?
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
The menu, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb cooks slowly like the hog, and it’s carved the same way, frequently with mint sauce.
FAQs for Titchfield
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Peter: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What’s the nearest station to Titchfield?
The closest is Fareham station, roughly 2 miles away.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We don’t offer halal meat.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
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.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Do you come to Titchfield?
We do. Send us the address and we will confirm availability.
What space does the roaster need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
What affects the price in Titchfield
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- The number of people
- Travel to Titchfield
- Season and day of the week
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Details that help
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- Your menu choices
- The date and time of the event
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of the cooking area helps. Use our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To help:
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so all you need is the space.
We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.
How it works
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. Late September evenings in Titchfield lose the light at about 7:10pm, and in December it’s nearer 4:00pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

Planning help
A hog roast or other catering?
Catered or DIY? With catering we roast, carve and serve; with hire you do the cooking. For bigger events, catering is normally the easier choice. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Why us?
- Timed around your day
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
See our pricing and our hog roast cost guide.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

Space, access and the venue
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
- A safe distance from walls, tents and trees
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before you book.
