Book a hog roast in Wigley
Hog roast hire in Wigley, carved to order
Slow-roasted pork carved to order: that is what you get when you book a hog roast in Wigley. The classic roll comes with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, with sides and extras to choose from. For big birthdays and anniversaries and weddings, day or evening, we can cook coleslaw, new potatoes and halloumi skewers and more.
Somewhere as small as Wigley, a field, yard or garden is often the spot. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and firm, level ground matters most. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Tell us how many vegans to expect, and we will bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.

Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Tips:
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
Expect us to be on site for much of the day, since slow roasting starts early.
We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.

How it works
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Late September evenings in Wigley lose the light at about 7:10pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 4:00pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We check the space and quote.
- We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve.
- We clear up and go.
Before we arrive
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage
