Hog roast hire across ME13

Slow-roasted pork carved to order: that is hog roast hire in ME13. Rolls, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling come as standard, and you can add sides and other meats. We serve new potatoes, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls, and we’re often booked for community events and sports clubs and societies.

The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand.

  1. First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
  3. We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
  4. Our chef carves to order and our staff serve at the agreed time.
  5. We clear the serving area and pack away.

Cost

What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

Why book our hog roast

  • Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
  • Staff to serve, so you do not have to

What’s near Faversham

You’ll find our roaster at events near Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School, Mechanics Arms and Ethelbert Road Primary School and the streets around them. Other local landmarks include Oare Meadow (1.1 miles north) and Church of St Mary Magdalene (less than half a mile north-west). Faversham has its own railway station: Faversham station, handy for guests travelling by train. Well-known places in the area include Newnham Castle (4.2 miles south-west).

Hog roast catering in ME13: local guide

From Faversham, Davington and Preston to 38 villages and hamlets, bookings across ME13 range from town gardens to farmyards, and a hog roast suits every kind of setting. Town bookings mean planning access; village bookings mean planning lanes and ground. 13 of the places we cover in ME13 are within about 6 miles of the sea, so we frequently plan a sheltered spot for the roaster.

Faversham: Parks such as Oare Meadow usually need permission from the council or landowner for any cooking, so check first. If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like Ethelbert Road Primary School, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Faversham, it stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, but by late December it is dark by about 3:50pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you’re organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.

For events on land you don’t own, such as a park or field, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

Is a hog roast right for you?

Next to a formal plated meal, a hog roast does not need a kitchen, which usually keeps the cost down.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the price includes, item by item
  • Travel and any London charges
  • If the price includes VAT
  • How long the roast takes and when they’ll arrive

Full catering or machine hire?

Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

Allergies and dietary needs

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs
  • Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Put the menu on the invitation

We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so you only need to provide the space.

Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal, and they’re listed in your quote.

Prices and what affects them

The biggest factors are:

  • Menu choices and extras
  • The number of people
  • Whether you want china
  • Time on site

Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

What we need to know

We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what to include:

  • The date and time of the event
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • Roughly how many people
  • What the outdoor space is like

Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Send us your details through our quote form.

FAQs for ME13

Do we need a big space?

Frequently, yes, if there’s a level, open spot away from the house and trees, as long as we can get the equipment in. Send us a photo.

How much will it be?

Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we’ll send a price.

Do you clear up?

Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.

Is it just pork?

It is built around the hog, but lamb and chicken can be added.

How soon do you get booked up?

Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.

How much room do you need?

A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.

Does the roaster have to be outside?

No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.

  • Roasted on site for several hours, outdoors under cover
  • Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
  • Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
  • Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
