How our hog roast hire works in Brockham
Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, over several hours, outdoors under cover. When it’s ready, our chef carves it and our staff serve it in soft rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and a piece of crackling. Whether it is sports clubs and societies and christmas fairs, we can cook crackling, halloumi skewers and hog roast rolls.
In a rural place like Brockham, roast pork in a field is hard to beat. Tell us about gates, tracks and the ground. You will know what’s included before booking: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.

FAQs for Brockham
How far is Brockham from London?
About 20 miles from central London, and well within our area.
We’re gathering after a service at Christ Church: can you cater?
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 usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do you travel across Surrey?
We cater across Surrey, including Brockham. Get in touch for a price.
Will people get crackling?
It is: the skin turns to crackling and everyone gets some.
Can we have lamb or chicken?
The hog is the centrepiece, with lamb and chicken as extras.
What comes with the hog roast?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
What happens after service?
Our staff clear up after service, and leave the area tidy.
Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?
It depends on the space and access more than size. Tell us about the garden and we’ll advise.

How the day works
Here’s how the day normally runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and our chef carves it when you are ready. Evenings in Brockham stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; once it’s dark, we need light at the carving station.

Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. Buffets can sit out for hours. Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
What you get with us
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Sides to make it a full meal
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
