The process
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your visitors will smell it long before they see it. For an autumn event in Sutton Green, sunset is around 7:05pm in late September, so plan lighting if you’re trading into the evening.
- Tell us about the event.
- We check the pitch and paperwork and quote.
- We set up early on the pitch.
- We carve to order through the day.
- We leave the pitch clean.
Before we arrive
- Think about shelter for your visitors
- Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking

About our hog roast for events in Sutton Green
Sports clubs, fun runs and tournaments suit a hog roast, served as people finish. Whether it is country shows and charity days, we’ll put together a menu of apple sauce, halloumi skewers and crackling for your visitors.
At a field event near Sutton Green, power and water may be limited; we cook on gas, so we do not need mains power. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some visitors will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Signpost the stall clearly
- Let us know if many visitors are vegetarian
- Share the event’s food safety requirements with us
- Show allergens at the stall
We follow the organiser’s site rules, including vehicle times and pitch layout.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with burger vans, a hog roast feels more special at a traditional fête. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why book with us
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

Sutton Green questions
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 will work to whatever the site needs.
Do you come out to small places like Sutton Green?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Is it pay as you go?
It depends on how your event works. Tell us what you have in mind and we’ll talk it through.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is frequently possible, with the venue’s agreement.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Do you come to Sutton Green?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Sutton Green and the rest of Surrey included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
Running an event in Sutton Green
Sutton Green is about 2 miles north of Guildford, in Surrey. We are happy to travel to Sutton Green for events. Sutton Green is one of 395 places in Surrey we cover.
An event in Mayford Meadows means agreeing traders and vehicle routes with the landowner, normally the council. A school like Hoe Valley School can book a hog roast for a fair, fun run or sports day. Within about 6 miles is the Surrey Hills National Landscape, where events may have extra rules on cooking and waste; we work to the site rules.
Wherever your event is in GU4, we can roast on site for your visitors, from busy streets to quiet lanes. That could mean an event in a garden on Sutton Green Road, Foxes Path and Robin Hood Lane, as long as there’s somewhere outside to cook. Close by, we cover events in Pyle Hill (1 mile north-west), Jacobs Well (1 mile south-west), Mayford (1 mile north), Send (1 mile north-east) and Burpham (2 miles south). Within a short drive, we also cover Woking (3 miles north), Camberley (8 miles north-west), Epsom (13 miles east), Farnham (11 miles south-west), Ewell (14 miles east) and Egham (10 miles north).

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
