About hog roast hire in RG9
It’s a simple format that suits most crowds: roast pork in a soft roll, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, plus lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan choices if you want them. We serve halloumi skewers, coleslaw and hog roast rolls, and we are often booked for village fêtes and school fairs and parties at home.
Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, set up where we’ve agreed, and roast, carve and serve without fuss.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- We carve and serve when you’re ready to eat.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.

Planning a hog roast in RG9
RG9 covers everything from Henley-on-Thames, Sonning Common and Lower Shiplake to 34 small villages and hamlets, and a hog roast works in all of them. Town bookings mean planning access; village bookings mean planning lanes and ground. The Chilterns National Landscape is within easy reach of places across RG9, so check venue rules on outside caterers for countryside events.
Henley-on-Thames: For a fundraiser at a school like Trinity Church of England Primary School, the roaster can cook on a pitch agreed with the school. Churches such as Holy Trinity Church rarely have room for a roaster, but a hall or home close by normally does. Late September evenings in Henley-on-Thames lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
Why a hog roast works

Looking after everyone
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- We do not offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
Slow roasting needs attention, which is our job, not yours. You can relax and enjoy the day.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for anyone who needs them.
Before you choose a spot
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Things to check:
- Cover for your guests in bad weather
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- A safe distance from walls, tents and trees
The menu, dish by dish
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.

FAQs for RG9
Is our garden big enough?
Frequently, yes, if there’s a level, open spot away from the house and trees, and a way to wheel the equipment through. A photo helps us check.
Will people get crackling?
It is: slow roasting crisps the skin and we break it up for everyone.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it.
Do you provide china?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
