Party hog roast in Waterloo, carved to order
In Waterloo, a hog roast is a favourite for birthdays and garden parties: hearty food that feeds everyone at once. Our staff serve and clear. Typical bookings include family reunions and back-garden get-togethers, with crackling, apple sauce and jacket potatoes.
Throwing a party in Waterloo? A hog roast keeps you out of the kitchen, in a garden, a yard or a hired hall with outdoor space. A long roast means a word with the neighbours. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.

Prices and what affects them
Each price is built from:
- The date and time of year
- Plates or china
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china

- Any venue rules
To get a quote, just tell us the date, where the party is and roughly how many. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Fill in our quote form.
Catered or do it yourself?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Step by step
On the day, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, worked back from your serving time. A summer party in Waterloo stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- It starts with the date, the address and a rough guest list.
- We check the space and send a clear quote.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
- When it is time to eat, the chef carves and we serve.
- Afterwards we tidy up the serving area.
How to prepare
- Let us know about tight access
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Sides turn rolls into a proper party meal.
