How hog roast hire works in Kent

Hog roast hire takes the cooking off your hands. We get there early, put up the cover and roast for hours, then carve and serve at the time you choose. We serve rotisserie chicken, crackling and new potatoes, and we’re often booked for festive gatherings and club events and presentations.

Here’s how the day usually runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you’re ready.

  1. It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
  3. On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
  4. We carve and serve when you are ready to eat.
  5. We clear the serving area and pack away.

The Kent Downs National Landscape and the High Weald National Landscape are within easy reach of places across Kent, so check venue rules on outside caterers for countryside events. 219 of the places we cover in Kent are within about 6 miles of the sea, so we frequently plan a sheltered spot for the roaster.

Events we cater in Kent

A hog roast suits big outdoor gatherings in Kent: a whole hog goes a long way, and the carving is part of the event.

Whatever the occasion in Kent, a slow roast goes a long way. We’re often asked to cater:

  • Fêtes, fairs and shows
  • Sports clubs and societies
  • Christmas parties
  • Gatherings after a funeral

What we serve, dish by dish

Rotisserie chicken

Chicken off the rotisserie, carved or jointed can be served in a roll or on a plate alongside the pork.

Roast pork

We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy right to the last roll.

Before you choose a spot

The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:

  • A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
  • Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
  • Parking near the spot

What a hog roast costs

The price comes down to:

  • The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
  • Access to the cooking area
  • Time on site
  • Travel to Kent

For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

What to tell us

To check the date and the space, we’ll need:

  • Allergies we should know about
  • What the outdoor space is like
  • Your date and serving time
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china

Kent questions

What about coeliacs?

We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.

Who serves?

We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.

Do you cover Kent?

Yes. We cover London and the South East, Kent included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.

What comes with the hog roast?

Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.

How do we prepare?

A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.

Will people get crackling?

Crackling is part of every roll for anyone who wants it.

Do you need power or water?

The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
