Hog roast hire for Buckingham
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
Slow roasting needs attention, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.
China crockery is available on request, at an extra cost.
About our hog roast hire in Buckingham
In Buckingham, we cater birthdays, weddings, staff days and fêtes. The idea is always the same: a slow roast on site, carved fresh and served by our team. We are often asked to cater festive gatherings and community events, with rotisserie chicken, crackling and new potatoes.
A town like Buckingham gives you plenty of options: a garden, a club, a hall or a venue. We’ll agree where the roaster goes beforehand. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Catered or DIY? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Within reach of Buckingham are historic houses such as Stowe House (2.8 miles north-west). If your event is at a historic house or estate, check its rules on outside caterers and gas cooking early. After a service at St Peter and St Paul, the hog roast can be ready at a nearby hall or house.
Wherever your event is in MK18, we can bring the roaster to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast does not need a kitchen, which generally keeps the cost down. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.

Buckingham questions
We are gathering after a service at St Peter and St Paul: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Is Buckingham close to London?
Roughly 51 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.
How does hog roast hire work?
We bring the roaster, roast the hog on site for hours, then our chef carves it and our staff serve, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, for confident cooks. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Do you serve the food?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Where the roaster can go in Buckingham
It is worth planning the cooking area in advance. We look for:
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
