Hog roast hire in Weald
Hog roast hire in Weald, carved to order
Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, for hours, under a gazebo outside. Then our chef carves it and the team serves it in rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. For work summer parties and festive gatherings, we can cook spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and salads and more.
Somewhere like Weald, a yard or firm field frequently works. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Weald: venues, access and local tips
Weald is about 4 miles south-east of Carterton, in Oxfordshire. Our roaster is a regular sight at events around Weald, from gardens to fields. Weald is one of 443 towns and villages in Oxfordshire where we cater. You can also see our page for Oxford, about 14 miles away.
Nearby historic houses include Kelmscott Manor (4.2 miles south-west) and Longworth House (4.9 miles east). Historic venues frequently limit cooking on site, so ask early if you’re booking one. School fairs and fundraisers, for a school such as Bampton CofE Primary School, can book a hog roast stall.
For events in OX18, we just need to know where the roaster can cook. If your venue is just outside Weald, we also cover Bampton (1 mile north-east), Clanfield (2 miles west), Black Bourton (2 miles north-west), Aston (2 miles east) and Brize Norton (3 miles north). We also serve nearby towns such as Oxford (14 miles east), Didcot (15 miles south-east), Abingdon-on-Thames (12 miles east), Witney (5 miles north-east), Wantage (10 miles south-east) and Grove (9 miles south-east).

Should I cook it myself?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.

It is a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and roast, carve and serve without fuss.

Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
You will not need to worry about the food on the day. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, then clear up.

Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, since every event is different. The main factors are:
- Distance from us
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Site access
- How many people are eating
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Getting an accurate quote
These are the details we need:
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Where the event is
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Roughly how many people
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Use our quote form.
Where the roaster can go in Weald
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
