Hog roast hire for Woolstone

What we serve, dish by dish

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.

Roast pork

The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.

About our hog roast hire in Woolstone

Our hog roast hire is fully catered: we roast, our chef carves and our staff serve. If you’d rather do it yourself, we also hire out the machine. We are often asked to cater gatherings after a funeral and work summer parties, serving rotisserie chicken, crackling and spit-roast lamb.

In a smaller place like Woolstone, a hog roast in the garden is frequently the simplest option: space to cook, no venue hire and no cooking for you. Let us know how we reach the garden. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.

The process

We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can get on with your event in Woolstone. Around midsummer it stays light in Woolstone until about 9:25pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is usually in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.

  1. You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
  2. We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
  3. We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
  4. We carve and serve when you are ready to eat.
  5. We clear the serving area and pack away.

Before we arrive

  • Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
  • Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

Looking after everyone

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:

  • Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
  • Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
  • Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
  • Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests

The roaster needs looking after for hours, which is our job, not yours. You can relax and enjoy the day.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

A hog roast or other catering?

The obvious catch is that a hog roast is pork. So we offer lamb, chicken and vegetarian and vegan choices too. Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.

What you get with us

  • Carved by our chef in front of your guests
  • Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
  • Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
  • The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

Take a look at our pricing and what a hog roast costs.

What a hog roast costs

The price comes down to:

  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • The date and time of year
  • Access to the cooking area
  • Plates or china

Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

Details that help

To check the date and the space, tell us:

  • Allergies we should know about
  • Where the event is
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • Which meats and sides you’d like

We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or MK6 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Fill in our quote form.

What the cooking area needs

The cooking area is the main thing to plan. Check these:

  • A way to wheel the roaster to the spot
  • Cover for your guests in bad weather
  • Permission from the venue or landowner

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

FAQs for Woolstone

How far is Woolstone from London?

About 46 miles from central London.

We’re gathering after a service at The Woolstones Community Centre: can you cater?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.

How long does the roast need?

Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.

Where does the hog roast go?

Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you’re unsure.

Do we need to provide electricity?

No, the roast is cooked on gas. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.

Can you work around our timings?

We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

Is our garden big enough?

Frequently, yes, if there is a level, open spot away from the house and trees, as long as we can get the equipment in. Send us a picture.

Do you serve the crackling?

Crackling is part of every roll for anyone who wants it.

Catered or do it yourself?

Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

  • Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
  • Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
  • Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
