Hog roast hire in SW5: what to expect
Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, for hours, under a gazebo outside. When it is ready, our chef carves it and our staff serve it in soft rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and a piece of crackling. On the menu are hog roast rolls, coleslaw and new potatoes, and we’re frequently booked for staff days and open days and community events.
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your guests, with crackling for everyone who wants it.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear 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.
What it costs in SW5
