Hog roast hire in Edenbridge, carved to order
The smell of roasting pork is half the appeal. We roast slowly on site in Edenbridge, then carve the pork into rolls with all the trimmings. Popular choices include new potatoes, rotisserie chicken and spit-roast lamb, and typical bookings are for wedding breakfasts and evening food and milestone birthdays.
For a place the size of Edenbridge, your own garden is often the best venue: plenty of room, no hire fees and nobody stuck in the kitchen. Tell us about access down the drive or side of the house. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
What comes off the roaster
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb is popular alongside the pork, especially for guests who don’t eat pork.
Planners, venues and businesses
If you’re booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
How the day works
We take care of everything from the first hour of roasting to clearing away, so you can enjoy your event. In Edenbridge, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check the date and the cooking area, then send a quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- At serving time, the chef carves and the team serves.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
How to prepare
- Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

Edenbridge Town station, in Edenbridge itself.
How far is Edenbridge from London?
About 22 miles from central London.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.

What happens when we hire a hog roast?
You choose the date, the menu and the serving time; we do the rest. Just give us an outdoor spot to cook.
Is our garden big enough?
Access and clearance matter more than size. Describe the space and we’ll tell you honestly.
Looking after everyone
Some guests won’t eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Find out who does not eat pork, and order an alternative for them
- We don’t offer halal meat, so arrange that separately if it is needed
If timings shift, tell us: we can hold the roast for a while.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. 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 early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
What a hog roast costs
Things that change the price:
- Access to the cooking area
