Our hog roast hire is fully catered: we roast, our chef carves and our staff serve. If you’d rather do it yourself, we also hire out the machine. We are frequently asked to cater village fêtes and school fairs and milestone birthdays, with spit-roast lamb, salads and halloumi skewers.
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some.

Hog roast hire across HA3
HA3 covers everything from Harrow, Stanmore and Hatch End to 0 small villages and hamlets, and a hog roast suits every kind of setting. Town bookings mean planning access; village bookings mean planning lanes and ground.
Kenton: For a christening or gathering after a service at a church such as Church of St Mary, the roaster can be set up at a hall or home nearby. If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like St Gregory's Catholic Science College, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser. Late September evenings in Kenton lose the light at about 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.
Space, access and the venue
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
- A safe distance from walls, tents and trees
What we serve, dish by dish
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Choose from salads, new potatoes, coleslaw and roast or jacket potatoes, depending on the season and the occasion.
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb is popular alongside the pork, and handy for anyone who does not eat pork.
Should I cook it myself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Why a hog roast works
A hog roast is memorable. It is food and a bit of theatre at the same time.
Hosts in HA3 book us for small gatherings and big outdoor days alike. For example:
- Christmas parties
- Birthdays and anniversaries
- Village fêtes and school fairs
- Sports clubs and societies
Planners, venues and businesses
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll liaise with them on access and set-up.
HA3: your questions answered
What happens in bad weather?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
What if things run late?
We’ll be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.
Who serves?
You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.
What’s included?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
