About hog roast hire in MK17

A hog roast is one of the simplest ways to feed a crowd in MK17: a single slow roast, carved to order. We bring the roaster, the cover and the serving kit, and we serve and tidy up afterwards. Popular choices include crackling, spit-roast lamb and halloumi skewers, and typical bookings are for big birthdays and anniversaries and christmas parties.

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

  2. We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
  4. We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.

Hog roast hire across MK17

There are 3 towns and 23 villages and hamlets in MK17, so whether your event is in Newton Leys, Kingston and Glebe Farm or a quiet village, the approach is the same: level ground, access and agreed timings.

Glebe Farm: PTAs at schools such as St Mary's Wavendon CofE Primary often look for a hot-food stall for fairs and sports days. 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. Light matters for a long roast: around Glebe Farm, it stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, but by late December it is dark by about 3:55pm.

Prices and what affects them

The biggest factors are:

  • The date and time of year
  • How long the roast and service take
  • The journey to the venue
  • How many people are eating

Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups generally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.

What to tell us

When you enquire, please mention:

  • Roughly how many people
  • Any dietary needs or allergies
  • Your menu choices
  • Your date and serving time

We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your event: send us your details through our quote form.

Events we cater in MK17

Rolls are easy to eat standing up, which makes a hog roast ideal for relaxed events, and plates turn it into a proper meal.

A hog roast suits a wide range of occasions. Here are some of the most popular:

  • Gatherings after a funeral
  • Parties at home
  • Big birthdays and anniversaries
  • Club events and presentations

Allergies and dietary needs

Tell us about dietary needs early and we will help. Some ideas:

  • Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
  • We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it’s needed

We will agree a contact for the day, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.

A second roast, lamb or chicken, gives people a choice, priced in the quote.

Space, access and the venue

The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:

  • The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
  • Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle
  • Nothing overhead that could catch the heat

Should I cook it myself?

Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

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.
