About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: golden, crunchy and salty.
Hog roast hire in Tyler's Green, carved to order
We roast the hog at your event, not in a kitchen miles away, which means it is carved hot, with crisp crackling. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. Typical bookings include staff days and open days and sports clubs and societies, serving rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and salads.
In a hamlet or village like Tyler's Green, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. Timings are planned around your event, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.
Planners, venues and businesses
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- Find out who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
The roaster needs looking after for hours, and that is what we are there for. You can get on with your event.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
How the day works
Service is quick once we start carving: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. Evenings in Tyler's Green stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; once it is dark, we need light at the carving station.

Space, access and the venue
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

What a hog roast costs
The price comes down to:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- The journey to the venue
- Plates or china
- The number of people
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
