Your questions about a hog roast in Bromley Green
Do you cater at venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.
Is Bromley Green close to London?
Roughly 50 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
How long does the roast need?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
How soon do you get booked up?
Popular dates go early. But it’s always worth asking: send us your details through our quote form.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is typically fine if the venue is happy.
Can we just hire the roaster?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we will talk you through it.
How much will it be?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
How we price a hog roast
Each booking is quoted on its own, and the price depends on a few things:
- Season and day of the week
- The serving time and how long we’re on site
- The number of people
- Plates or china
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.

Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.

Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
The roaster needs looking after for hours, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, quoted separately.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Not just pork: spit-roast lamb, chicken and vegetarian choices
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
