Party hog roast in Tingewick
Party hog roast in Tingewick, slow-roasted on site
Party food needs to be easy to eat, and pork rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling are just that. Chicken and vegetarian options keep everyone happy. We are frequently asked to cater 18th, 21st, 40th, 50th and 60th birthdays and christenings and naming days, serving coleslaw, a vegan burger or sausage and crackling.
A country party near Tingewick is perfect for a hog roast: roasted all afternoon and carved on the lawn. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

How the day works
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. For an evening party in Tingewick, think about light: it’s light until about 9:30pm in June but only about 7:10pm in late September. A string of lights over the serving table works wonders.

- We arrive in good time and start roasting.
- When it’s time to eat, the chef carves and we serve.

Preparing for the day

Planners, venues and businesses
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

A hog roast or other catering?
Next to ordering takeaway, the roast is an event in itself. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
What the cooking area needs
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A wet-weather plan for guests
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Tingewick
Do you come out to small places like Tingewick?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Mary Magdalen: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
Is clearing up included?
Yes, we clear up after service.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will confirm what comes with it and how to use it.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
What happens after service?
We clear the serving area and pack away, leaving the spot as we found it.
What affects the price in Tingewick
Each price is built from:
- Plates or china
- Which meats and sides you choose
- How many people are eating
- Access to the cooking area
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:
- Where the event is
- An estimate of numbers
- Any venue rules
- Which meats and sides you’d like
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so it’s easy to compare like for like. Use our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork for the alternatives
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
We get there early to start the roast, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
