How our party hog roast works in Hinksey Hill
A party hog roast turns a garden party into an occasion. We set up in your garden or on the drive, roast slowly for hours and carve when you’re ready, so you are not stuck in the kitchen. For anniversary parties and garden parties, we can cook jacket potatoes, crackling and rotisserie chicken and more.
Country parties near Hinksey Hill suit a hog roast: slow-roasted and eaten outside. Plan shelter in case it rains. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before booking.

Catered or do it yourself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
For planners, venues and organisers
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will confirm what we can provide.

Hinksey Hill questions
Can you do a hog roast in Raleigh Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Lawrence: can you cater?
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. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.
What about the neighbours?
Give them a heads-up.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain does not stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
DIY machine hire is available. We’ll confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
What’s included?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Do we need cover?
The roaster has its own cover; plan shelter for guests in bad weather.
How we price a hog roast for your party
We work out each quote from:
- Which meats and sides you choose
- How many people are eating
- Site access
- The date and time of year
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head generally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
