Hog roast hire for Beare Green
What affects the price in Beare Green
We do not use a fixed price list, because every event is different. What matters most:
- The journey to the venue
- Which meats and sides you choose
- Numbers
- How easy it is to reach the spot
For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.
Details that help
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- Your date and serving time
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Your menu choices
- The address or postcode
Every event is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your event: use our quote form.
About our hog roast hire in Beare Green
The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: roast pork in a soft roll, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, plus lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan choices if you want them. On the menu are coleslaw, spit-roast lamb and hog roast rolls, and we’re regularly asked to cater wakes and staff days and open days.
In a hamlet or village like Beare Green, a farmyard or a neighbour’s field can make a good cooking spot. Gates, verges and soft ground are worth mentioning when you enquire. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so nobody in your party has to serve or tidying up afterwards.
Perfect for your event in Beare Green
Rolls are easy to eat standing up, which makes a hog roast ideal for relaxed events, while plates and sides suit a sit-down meal.

A closer look at the menu
Rotisserie chicken
For guests who don’t eat pork, rotisserie chicken is the easy answer, and children typically like it too.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Looking after everyone
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Remember that stuffing generally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
Let us know if the day runs late: a cooked roast can be held for a while before carving.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes make it a full meal.
Should I cook it myself?
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
How it works
Your timings come first. If things run late, we can hold the cooked roast for a while before carving, so keep us posted on the day. Around midsummer it stays light in Beare Green until about 9:20pm; by late September sunset is nearer 7:05pm, so summer evening service is generally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.

- A way to wheel the roaster to the spot
- A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding

Common questions in Beare Green
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll follow the site rules.
Which station is closest to Beare Green?
Beare Green has its own station: Holmwood station.

There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We don’t offer halal meat.
Can you roast in the rain?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.

No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Is it just pork?
The hog is the centrepiece, but lamb and chicken can be added.
Do you bring plates?

Do we need a big space?
Frequently, yes, if there’s a level, open spot away from the house and trees, as long as we can get the equipment in. A photo helps us check.
