Teston: your questions answered
Is Teston too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you do a hog roast in Quarry Wood?
Only if the landowner, generally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
How soon do you get booked up?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Ask and we’ll check.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
How do we prepare?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
Do you need power or water?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
The process
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. Open days in Teston normally finish in daylight, though in winter it is dark by about 3:50pm, so late events need lighting.
- Tell us where, when, how many and when you eat.
- We check access and gas rules and quote.
- We set up early and roast through the morning.
- We serve within your break.
- We pack away and go.
Before we arrive
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Let us know about tight access
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Send us your details through our quote form.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a plated lunch, it’s less formal and normally costs less. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
Why book with us
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- An itemised quote
- Halloumi skewers and a vegan option too
See our pricing and our hog roast cost guide.
Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs early and we’ll help. Some ideas:
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
Afterwards we tidy up, leaving the site as we found it.
Add rotisserie chicken or lamb for choice.
