About our hog roast for events in Bisley
At a fun run or tournament, a hog roast feeds hungry competitors. For town and village days and small festivals, we can cook a vegan burger or sausage, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers and more.
Village fêtes and summer fairs around Bisley are made for a hog roast. Tell us about the pitch, ground and access. Our chef carves in front of your visitors, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
Before you choose a spot
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- Any paperwork the organisers need
- Space away from marquees, stalls and trees
- A firm way on and off the field
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
Popular choices
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Rotisserie chicken
- Hog roast rolls
- Crackling
- Coleslaw
The process
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. For an autumn event in Bisley, sunset is around 7:05pm in late September, so evening trading needs lights.
- You tell us the event, the pitch and the expected crowd.
- We check access to the pitch and send a price.
- We arrive early, set up on the pitch and start roasting.
- We serve to order through the event.
- Afterwards we clear the pitch and go.
How to prepare
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps

Questions from Bisley
Could you cook in Bisley and West End Commons?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
How far is Bisley from London?
Roughly 26 miles from the centre of London.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What paperwork do you provide?
Requirements vary. Share your list and we will respond.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We work back from your serving time.
Is electricity needed?
Cooking is gas-fired. A supply is useful for lights.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you are feeding, so a good estimate matters. We will confirm the menu in the quote.
Do you trade at village fêtes?
We do. Send us the details.
