Hog roast hire for your event in Tower Hill

Hog roast hire takes the cooking off your hands. We get there early, put up the cover and roast for hours, then carve and serve at the time you choose. Typical bookings include wakes and memorial gatherings and club events and presentations, serving coleslaw, hog roast rolls and spit-roast lamb.

Gardens in Tower Hill tend to be compact, with neighbours on both sides, so we look for a spot well away from fences, sheds and windows. A word with the neighbours before a long roast is always a good idea. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

Organising for someone else?

Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.

Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.

Step by step

We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too. Late September evenings in Tower Hill lose the light at about 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

  1. We start with a few details about your event.
  2. We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
  4. We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
  5. We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.

Preparing for the day

  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
  • Think about shelter for your guests
  • Measure the narrowest gate or passage

How to compare hog roast caterers

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
