How hog roast hire works in SL2
In SL2, a hog roast is an easy way to feed plenty of people: one roast, slow-cooked for hours, carved in front of everyone. We bring the roaster, the cover and the serving kit, and we serve and tidy up afterwards. Typical bookings include christmas fairs and parties at home, with coleslaw, hog roast rolls and rotisserie chicken.
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day.
- First, tell us about your event.
- You get an availability check and a clear quote.
- We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
- We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
What you will pay
Numbers make the biggest difference: the price per head normally falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why book with us
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Planned to your running order
- No surprises: everything in writing

Hog roast catering in SL2: local guide
From Cippenham, Britwell and Upton to 8 villages and hamlets, bookings across SL2 range from town gardens to farmyards, and a hog roast works in all of them. Town bookings mean planning access; village bookings mean planning lanes and ground.
Britwell: School fairs and fundraisers, for a school such as Claycots School, can book a hog roast stall. A green space like Cocksherd Wood is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, typically the council’s. In Britwell, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
Planning the cooking spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
- A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
Occasions we serve in SL2
Rolls are easy to eat standing up, which makes a hog roast ideal for relaxed events, while plates and sides suit a sit-down meal.
We’re booked for all kinds of occasions in SL2 and nearby. Popular bookings include:
- Wedding breakfasts and evening food
- Club events and presentations

What we serve, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Our vegetarian option is halloumi and vegetable skewers: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal, especially at a sit-down event.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Some ideas:
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
Everything for serving comes with us, so you only need to provide the space.
Sides turn a roll into a proper meal.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Full catering or machine hire? Catering means we do everything; DIY hire means you roast and carve yourself. For bigger events, catering is usually the easier choice.
What your quote should include
- Exactly what’s included in the price
- The space, cover and access they need
- Travel and any London charges
- Allergen information for every dish
Common questions in SL2
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?
Many gardens are big enough, as long as we can get the equipment in. A picture helps us check.
Can you work around our timings?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
Is hog roast hire catered or DIY?
Either: we can cater fully or hire out the machine. Most people choose catering.
Will there be enough to go round?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
