Hog roast hire in West Green, carved to order
In West Green, a hog roast is an easy way to feed plenty of people: one roast, slow-cooked for hours, carved in front of everyone. We bring the roaster, the cover and the serving kit, and our staff serve and clear. We’re frequently asked to cater gatherings after a funeral and sports clubs and societies, with hog roast rolls, new potatoes and coleslaw.
In a rural place like West Green, roast pork in a field is hard to beat. Tell us about gates, tracks and the ground. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
What the cooking area needs
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- Nothing overhead that could catch the heat

How we price a hog roast
Each booking is quoted on its own, based on a few main things:
- How long the roast and service take
- Which meats and sides you choose
- The number of people
- Distance from us
A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Planning help
Planning for dietary needs
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Some ways to look after everyone:
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
We will agree a contact for the day, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal, and they’re listed in your quote.

West Green questions
Is West Green too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you cater after a service at St Mary's Church?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
What meats can we have?
The hog is the centrepiece, with lamb and chicken as extras.
Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?
Hampshire is part of our area. Ask for a quote.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: fill in our quote form.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
It depends on the size of the hog and the weather, but it’s several hours. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you are booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.
For events on land you do not own, such as a park or field, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
What comes off the roaster
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who do not eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children generally like it too.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
