Hog roast hire across GU9
A hog roast is one of the simplest ways to feed a crowd in GU9: one roast, slow-cooked for hours, carved in front of everyone. We bring the roaster, the cover and the serving kit, and we serve and tidy up afterwards. On the menu are coleslaw, spit-roast lamb and hog roast rolls, and typical bookings are for club events and presentations and community events.
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the space and quote.
- We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We pack away and leave you to it.
Cost
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why hosts in GU9 choose us
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- All the equipment comes with us
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too

A hog roast across GU9: what to know
From Farnham, Lower Bourne and Upper Hale to 6 villages and hamlets, bookings across GU9 range from town gardens to farmyards, and a hog roast works in all of them. Town bookings mean planning access; village bookings mean planning lanes and ground.
Farnham: For a christening or gathering after a service at a church such as St Joan of Arc's Church, the roaster can be set up at a hall or home nearby. Within reach of Farnham are historic houses such as Farnham Castle (0.6 miles north-west). Historic venues frequently limit cooking on site, so ask early if you are booking one. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Farnham, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
The obvious catch is that a hog roast is pork. That is why we offer lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option.

What we serve, dish by dish
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.
Spit-roast lamb
With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which works well for larger groups.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Space, access and the venue
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A way to wheel the roaster to the spot
- Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle
- Any venue rules sorted in advance
