FAQs for Godinton
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Is Godinton close to London?
Roughly 47 miles from the centre of London.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Who serves?
We carve and serve for you, and we clear up when service is finished.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat.
Where does the hog roast go?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A picture helps.
Is a hog roast right for your staff event?
If it is for clients, choose china, sides and lamb or chicken to make it more formal. The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

About the food
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some staff will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers make sure they’re not left with just salad.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
