Hog roast hire for New Marston

What happens on the day

Serving is straightforward: our chef carves and our staff fill the rolls or plates, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. In New Marston, the sun sets at about 9:25pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.

  1. We start with a few details about your event.
  2. We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
  4. We roast slowly on site, then carve for your guests.
  5. Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.

Preparing for the day

  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
  • Gather dietary requirements early

How our hog roast hire works in New Marston

We provide a fully catered hog roast: we roast, our chef carves and our staff serve. For confident cooks, the machine can be hired on its own. For parties at home and club events and presentations, we can cook hog roast rolls, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers for your guests.

There may be a hall or playing field near New Marston if the garden is small; any can work, with the owner’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

What comes off the roaster

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.

Rotisserie chicken

Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you’re booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.

New Marston: your questions answered

Could you cook in Headington Hill Park?

Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Check with them first.

How far is New Marston from London?

Roughly 52 miles from the centre of London.

Do you cook it or do we?

Both are available: we can cater fully or hire out the machine. Catering is the most popular choice.

How much room do you need?

A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.

What do you need from us on the day?

Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.

How does hog roast hire work?

We handle the roasting, carving and serving. All we need is a place to cook outdoors.

Can you be flexible on serving time?

Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.

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.

Perfect for your event in New Marston

There’s very little for you to organise: just an outdoor spot for the roaster. Everything else comes with us.

In New Marston and nearby, we cater for all sorts of events. Some of the most common are:

  • Weddings, day or evening
  • Christmas fairs
  • Wakes
  • Garden parties and barbecues

A green space like Headington Hill Park is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, typically the council’s.

Before you book anyone

  • A clear list of what’s included
  • Whether travel is included

What affects the price in New Marston

Here’s what affects the price:

  • Season and day of the week
  • Site access
  • Plates or china
  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken

Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.

What to tell us

These are the details we need:

  • A picture of the cooking area
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
  • Rough numbers
  • Rules from the venue or landowner

A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so it is easy to compare like for like. Send us your details through our quote form.

Allergies and dietary needs

Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:

  • Find out who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages

If timings shift, tell us: a cooked roast can be held for a while before carving.

Prefer to cook yourself? Ask about DIY machine hire.

Catered or do it yourself?

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Planning the cooking spot

Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. We look for:

  • A way to wheel the roaster to the spot
  • Any venue rules sorted in advance
  • A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Popular choices

  • Coleslaw
  • Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
  • Salads

  • Rotisserie chicken
  • Stuffing
  • Hog roast rolls
  • Roast or jacket potatoes
