Hog roast hire for Ware
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a barbecue, a hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone, instead of food coming off the grill in batches. Our guide compares the two. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why us?
- Served at the time you choose
- An itemised quote
- Carved to order by a chef
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
