Slow-roasted pork in Albury Heath
About our hog roast hire in Albury Heath
In Albury Heath, a hog roast is an easy way to feed a lot of people: one roast, slow-cooked for hours, carved in front of everyone. We bring the roaster, the cover and the serving kit, and we serve and tidy up afterwards. On the menu are spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken and salads, and we’re regularly asked to cater parties at home and wedding breakfasts and evening food.
For a rural spot like Albury Heath, a hog roast feels right at home. Let us know about access and ground conditions. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
How we price a hog roast
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Plates or china
- Numbers
- Distance from us
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
What to tell us
To check the date and the space, we’ll need:
- Allergies we should know about
- Roughly how many people
- Where the event is
- What the outdoor space is like
We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or GU5 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Fill in our quote form.
Questions from Albury Heath
Can you do a hog roast in Colekitchen Down?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Can you cater after a service at Old St Peter and St Paul's Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.
Is our garden big enough?
Frequently, yes, if there’s a level, open spot away from the house and trees, as long as we can get the equipment in. Send us a photo.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
How the day works
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We agree exactly where before the day. By late September, sunset in Albury Heath is around 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a plated meal, a hog roast doesn’t need a kitchen, which generally keeps the cost down. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
Why book with us
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Served at the time you choose
