What the cooking area needs
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, and a little planning goes a long way:
- A level pitch with firm ground
- Event approval for hot-food traders
- Details of what the event requires
As a London location, Netherne on-the-Hill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

Common questions in Netherne on-the-Hill
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Could you cook in Shabden Park?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.
When should we book?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
What about visitors who do not eat pork?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
What if things run late?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Do you offer gluten-free rolls?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
How it works
We roast under cover, so a shower won’t spoil the food. Your visitors will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Late-September events in Netherne on-the-Hill lose the light at about 7:05pm, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- Share the date, site and expected crowds.
- We agree how food will be paid for.
- We roast on the pitch.
- We serve rolls quickly.
- We clear up and go.
How to prepare
- Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

- Season and day of the week
- How many people are eating
A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

What else we do in Netherne on-the-Hill
Catered or do it yourself?
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. A few pointers:
- Tell us if there is a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Halal is not offered
- Make the stall easy to find
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
We follow the organiser’s site rules, including vehicle times and pitch layout.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
What comes off the roaster
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan visitors can have a vegan burger or sausage, so everyone has something hot.
