Hog roast catering across HP13

Hog roast hire across HP13

Hiring a hog roast means a whole hog cooked slowly on site, for hours, under a gazebo outside. When it is ready, our chef carves it and our staff serve it in soft rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and a piece of crackling. On the menu are halloumi skewers, new potatoes and hog roast rolls, and typical bookings are for work summer parties and wakes and memorial gatherings.

We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. The smell usually brings people over long before we carve.

  1. You share the when, where and how many.
  2. We look at the cooking area and send a price.
  3. We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve.
  5. We clear up and go.

Hog roast catering in HP13: local guide

There are 3 towns and 3 villages and hamlets in HP13, so whether your event is in High Wycombe, Totteridge and Terriers or a quiet village, the approach is the same: level ground, access and agreed timings.

High Wycombe: Among the historic houses close to High Wycombe are Hughenden Manor (1.5 miles north) and West Wycombe Park House (2.5 miles west). Estates like these tend to have strict rules for caterers, so check before booking. Coming by train? There’s a station right in High Wycombe: High Wycombe station. In High Wycombe, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is generally in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.

Before you choose a spot

Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:

  • Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
  • Vehicle access close to the cooking area
  • A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains

Is a hog roast right for you?

Compared with a cold buffet, a hog roast is hot, freshly carved and feels like an occasion. A buffet can sit out all afternoon.

What a hog roast costs

Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:

  • Travel to HP13
  • Crockery choices
  • Season and day of the week
  • Numbers

Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

Full catering or machine hire?

HP13: your questions answered

Do you serve the crackling?

Of course: slow roasting crisps the skin and we break it up for everyone.

The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.

Do we need our own staff?

You do not need anyone else: we carve, serve and tidy up.

Do you offer gluten-free rolls?

Ask for gluten-free rolls and we’ll bring them. We will give you full allergen information for every dish.
