About our hog roast hire in Walton on the Hill
With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it’s served. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. We serve halloumi skewers, coleslaw and salads, and we are often booked for milestone birthdays and gatherings after a funeral.
Somewhere as small as Walton on the Hill, a field, yard or garden is frequently the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and firm, level ground matters most. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed.
How the day works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking does not depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Late September evenings in Walton on the Hill lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We look at the cooking area and send a price.
- We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve.
- We pack away and leave you to it.
Preparing for the day
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so all you need is the space.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast.

Do you leave the area tidy?

Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?
Access and clearance matter more than size. Tell us about the garden and we will advise.
How do we prepare?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Should I cook it myself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. Buffets can sit out for hours. Published UK guides give a wide range for hog roast catering, from around £10 a head for a basic roll to £20 or more with sides and service. Every event gets its own quote, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
