A hog roast near Westbourne
Hog roast hire in Westbourne, carved to order
Booking a hog roast means you do not have to cook. We get there early, put up the cover and roast for hours, ready to carve when you are. We serve new potatoes, hog roast rolls and crackling, and typical bookings are for birthdays and anniversaries and summer garden parties.
Somewhere as small as Westbourne, a field, yard or garden is often the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and level, firm ground is the key. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
Expect us to be on site for much of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
Prefer to cook yourself? Ask about DIY machine hire.
The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: grilled halloumi with vegetables.
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
How it works

What the cooking area needs
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, so a few things are worth checking:
- A way to wheel the roaster to the spot
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
If you’re unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a cold buffet, a hog roast is hot, freshly carved and feels like an occasion. 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, with everything listed.
Why book with us
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
See our prices page or the cost guide.
Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you, especially outdoors.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
