Hog roast hire in Cooper's Corner, carved to order
We roast the hog at your event, not in a kitchen miles away, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp when it is served. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. Typical bookings include christmas fairs and big birthdays and anniversaries, with new potatoes, halloumi skewers and spit-roast lamb.
Somewhere like Cooper's Corner, a yard or firm field often works. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. We bring plates as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

How it works
Slow roasting is the whole point: the meat cooks gently until it’s tender while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In Cooper's Corner, the sun sets at about 9:15pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so a summer evening hog roast is normally carved in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Full catering or machine hire? Catering means we do everything; DIY hire means you roast and carve yourself. Most hosts choose catering for anything bigger than a family party. Distance is part of the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.
Why book our hog roast in Cooper's Corner
- The classics: stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours
See our prices page and the cost guide.
Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
We’ll agree a contact for the day, who can show us the cooking spot and pass on any changes.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, quoted separately.
What affects the price in Cooper's Corner
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- How many people are eating
- Plates or china
- Season and day of the week
- How long the roast and service take
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

Questions from Cooper's Corner
How far is Cooper's Corner from London?
About 41 miles from central London.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat is not something we offer.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.
How do we prepare?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
What’s included?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
What we serve, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
A plant-based burger or sausage covers vegans, in a roll, with salad on the side.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
