How our Christmas hog roast works in Whitehill
Add roast turkey alongside the hog, with roast potatoes and salads. Chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option cover everyone else. We are frequently asked to cater festive family get-togethers and late-night shopping events, serving hog roast rolls, roast turkey and rotisserie chicken.
At a festive party in Whitehill, a hog roast in the garden goes down well. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
Working with your venue
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
What affects the price in Whitehill
Here’s what affects the price:
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- Menu choices and extras
- The number of people
- Whether you want china
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Getting an accurate quote
When you get in touch, it helps to include:
- Where the event is
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- An estimate of numbers
- Your menu choices
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so it’s easy to compare like for like. Send us your details through our quote form.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Questions from Whitehill
What’s the nearest station to Whitehill?
Liphook station, about 3.7 miles south-east of the centre.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
What space does the roaster need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will confirm the space with your quote.
Can you serve inside our office or hall?
Serving inside is usually fine with the venue’s agreement.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
How early should we book for Christmas?
December weekends go first. Ask as soon as you know your date.
Space, access and the venue

- Lighting on the path from the party to the serving area
