Upper Eashing questions
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 will follow the site rules.
Is Upper Eashing too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
When do you start roasting?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
How it works
People love watching the carving: the hog is carved in front of your crew, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. In December, daylight in Upper Eashing ends around 3:55pm, so the unit base needs lighting for late service. In summer, light lasts until about 9:20pm.
- Production sends us the location and call times.
- We confirm access and send a price.
- We set up at base and roast through the morning.
- We carve fast on the lunch call.
- We clear our spot.
Getting ready for the day
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
