Hog roast hire for your event in Tubney
The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a roll, and alternatives for anyone who does not eat pork. We’re often asked to cater garden parties and barbecues and work summer parties, with spit-roast lamb, hog roast rolls and coleslaw.
Somewhere as small as Tubney, a field, yard or garden is frequently the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and level, firm ground is the key. Timings are planned around your event, because the roast has to start hours before you eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

Next to a barbecue, one roast feeds everyone at once, instead of food coming off the grill in batches. Our guide compares the two. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.

Tubney: your questions answered
Is Tubney close to London?
Roughly 56 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Lawrence: 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 typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
When do you start roasting?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?
All of Oxfordshire is in our area. Tell us the venue for a quote.
How much does a hog roast cost?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we are on site. Send us the details and we will quote.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Do we need a big space?
It depends on the space and access more than size. Describe the space and we will tell you honestly.
Can you cater in Tubney?
Yes, Tubney is in our area. Send us the address and we’ll confirm availability.
Full catering or machine hire?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Why choose hog roast hire in Tubney?
There’s very little for you to organise: just an outdoor spot for the roaster. Everything else comes with us.
Lots of different events suit a hog roast. Here are some of the most popular:
- Festive gatherings
- Wedding breakfasts and evening food

School fairs and fundraisers, for a school such as Abingdon Preparatory School, can book a hog roast stall.
Before booking anyone
- VAT, if it applies
- Travel and any London charges

For planners, venues and organisers
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.
What else we do in Tubney
What happens on the day
A hog roast is always cooked outside, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Tubney, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.
Before we arrive
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll.
Space, access and the venue
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

How we price a hog roast
The biggest factors are:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Time on site
- Site access
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
