A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone, so nobody stands at a grill all afternoon. Our guide compares the two. Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.

Planning the cooking spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding
- Vehicle access close to the cooking area
Afton Park is a more remote spot, so tell us early and we will plan the journey.

Questions from Afton Park
Is Afton Park too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you roast near the sea around Afton Park?
Yes. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Is our garden big enough?
It depends on the space and access more than size. Tell us about the garden and we will advise.
Is mains power needed?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
What should we sort out beforehand?
A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.

Step by step
Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. Around midsummer it stays light in Afton Park until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:10pm, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. In December it’s dark by about 4:05pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.

- We look at the cooking area and send a price.
- We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
