How hog roast hire works in GU2
Hiring a hog roast means a whole hog cooked slowly on site, for hours, under a gazebo outside. Then our chef carves it and the team serves it in rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. We are frequently asked to cater work summer parties and milestone birthdays, serving coleslaw, halloumi skewers and new potatoes.
We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
What you’ll pay
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why hosts in GU2 choose us
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
