Slow-roasted pork in Cuddington
Planning a hog roast in Cuddington
Cuddington is about 1 mile east of Ewell, in Surrey. From village halls to gardens and fields, events around Cuddington suit a hog roast. We cater 395 places across Surrey, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater events right across the region, from Cuddington to London (about 11 miles away).
If guests are travelling by rail, Cheam station is about 0.7 miles away. A green space like Nonsuch Park is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, normally the council’s. Cuddington is within about 8 miles of the Surrey Hills National Landscape, and some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles on site. Ask your venue about gas cooking and access.
Anywhere in KT17, SM3 and SM2, we can roast on site for your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. We can cater an event on streets such as The Avenue, London Road and Roberts Close or the roads around them, as long as there is somewhere outside to cook. Other places close to Cuddington we cover include Stoneleigh (1 mile north-west), Ewell (1 mile west), Cheam (1 mile south-east), North Cheam (1 mile north-east) and North Looe (2 miles south). Larger places within reach include Woking (15 miles west), Horley (13 miles south), Redhill (9 miles south), Egham (14 miles west), Reigate (8 miles south) and Walton-on-Thames (8 miles west).
Well-known places in the area include The Ashley Centre (2.4 miles south-west) and Municipal Borough of Sutton and Cheam (1.4 miles east). Green spaces nearby include Belmont Pastures.

Hog roast hire in Cuddington, carved to order
A whole hog, roasted for hours and carved in front of your guests: that is hog roast hire in Cuddington. Rolls, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling come as standard, with sides and extras to choose from. For club events and presentations and wedding breakfasts and evening food, we’ll put together a menu of new potatoes, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken and more.
Somewhere like Cuddington, a yard or firm field frequently works. Mention gates and soft ground when you get in touch. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Perfect for your event in Cuddington
There’s very little for you to organise: just an outdoor spot for the roaster. Everything else comes with us.
We are regularly asked to cater all sorts of events around Cuddington, including:
- Christmas fairs
- Corporate events
- Birthdays and anniversaries
- Garden parties and barbecues
For a fundraiser at a school like Nonsuch High School for Girls, the roaster can cook on a pitch agreed with the school.

Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
You will not need to worry about the food on the day. We arrive hours ahead, set up, roast, carve and serve, then clear up.
Add lamb or chicken for a second roast, priced in the quote.

Cuddington questions
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.
Do you come out to small places like Cuddington?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Is mains power needed?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Do you serve the crackling?
It is: slow roasting crisps the skin and we break it up for everyone.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But it is always worth asking: use our quote form.
Can we have lamb or chicken?
Add lamb or rotisserie chicken alongside the pork. Vegetarian and vegan options are available too.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
- Served when you’re ready, and we tidy the serving area afterwards
