Our hog roast hire in HP23
A whole hog, roasted for hours and carved in front of your guests: that’s hog roast hire in HP23. Rolls, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling come as standard, with sides and extras to choose from. Typical bookings include big birthdays and anniversaries and gatherings after a funeral, with coleslaw, hog roast rolls and halloumi skewers.
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin crisps into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving.

- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.

A hog roast across HP23: what to know
From Drayton Beauchamp to 1 villages and hamlets, bookings across HP23 range from town gardens to farmyards, and a hog roast works in all of them. In towns, plan access to the garden; in villages, tell us about lanes and ground.
Drayton Beauchamp: Among the historic houses close to Drayton Beauchamp are Cholesbury Manor House (3.6 miles south-east). If your event is at a historic house or estate, check its rules on outside caterers and gas cooking early. Churches such as Church of St Mary the Virgin rarely have room for a roaster, but a hall or home close by normally does. Light matters for a long roast: in Drayton Beauchamp, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Before you choose a spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
- A way to wheel the roaster to the spot
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed
Name someone to meet us, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.
We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.
What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is there for anyone who’d rather not have pork, and it suits fussy eaters.
Why a hog roast works
