How our party hog roast works in South Hayling
Milestone birthdays call for something special, and a hog roast in the garden fits the bill. The smell sets the mood. For getting-engaged parties and retirement celebrations, we can cook jacket potatoes, coleslaw and a vegan burger or sausage and more.
Around South Hayling, a garden with room to spare is all you need. It suits that kind of party. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- A spot well away from the house
- A wet-weather plan for guests
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

About the food
Roast pork
Everything starts with the slow-roasted pork: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, and served hot.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: grilled halloumi with vegetables, in a roll or on a plate.
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork for the alternatives
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
A cooked roast holds for a while, so tell us if timings change.
China crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
DIY or catered? DIY hire works for relaxed get-togethers; catering suits bigger parties. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What you get with us

Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
