Hog roast hire for your event in Wintershill
With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it’s served. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. For milestone birthdays and summer garden parties, we will put together a menu of halloumi skewers, coleslaw and crackling for your guests.
Somewhere as small as Wintershill, a field, yard or garden is frequently the spot. Tell us about narrow lanes or long drives, and firm, level ground matters most. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a barbecue, one roast feeds everyone at once, so nobody stands at a grill all afternoon. See our guide to hog roast or barbecue. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. We quote every event individually, so you know exactly what you are paying for.

Common questions in Wintershill
Do you come out to small places like Wintershill?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
How far is Wintershill from London?
About 62 miles from central London.
How far ahead should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we’ll check.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Is our garden big enough?
It depends on the space and access more than size. Tell us about the garden and we will advise.
Is hog roast hire catered or DIY?
Both are available: fully catered, where we roast, carve and serve, or DIY machine hire. Most people choose catering.
Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?
All of Hampshire is in our area. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen information
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
Prefer to cook yourself? Ask about DIY machine hire.
Should I cook it myself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
- Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
