Hog roast hire for Wendover
Hog roast hire in Wendover, 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. We are frequently asked to cater club events and presentations and summer garden parties, with spit-roast lamb, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken.
In and around Wendover, gardens and village halls are common choices. If the lane is narrow, tell us so we can plan our vehicle. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

The process
We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can get on with your event in Wendover. Around midsummer it stays light in Wendover until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.

Full catering or machine hire?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
