Statenborough questions
Do you come out to small places like Statenborough?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you come to a school fair in Statenborough?
Yes, if the school is happy for a hog roast on site. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Can you work around our timings?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will adjust.
Can a hog roast raise money?
Tell us about the event and how you’d like to raise money, and we will suggest a way to make it work.
Do you come to Statenborough?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Statenborough and the rest of Kent included. Send us the address for a quote.
Where does the hog roast go?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.

Where the roaster can go in Statenborough
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- The landowner’s or council’s agreement

Organising for someone else?
If you are a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
Marquee suppliers usually set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
Catered or do it yourself?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
