Step by step
We arrive hours before you want to eat, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. Light matters for a long roast: in Hawthorn Hill, sunset is around 8:55pm in late May and 9:25pm in late June, but by late December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- Our chef carves to order and our staff serve at the agreed time.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
Preparing for the day
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

A hog roast compared with other options

Read our pricing and the cost guide.
Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Put the menu on the invitation
Everything for serving comes with us, so all you need is the space.

Organising for someone else?
If you are organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
About the food
Spit-roast lamb
Spit-roast lamb is popular alongside the pork, especially for guests who don’t eat pork.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Halloumi and vegetable skewers are the vegetarian choice: squeaky, salty cheese with colourful veg.
What affects the price in Hawthorn Hill
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Menu choices and extras
- Crockery choices
- How long the roast and service take
- Season and day of the week
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.
Getting an accurate quote
These are the details we need:
- An estimate of numbers
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- The date and time of the event
- Any dietary needs or allergies
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Send us your details through our quote form.
Questions from Hawthorn Hill
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Michael and All Angels: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Send us the address.
How far is Hawthorn Hill from London?
Roughly 28 miles from the centre of London.
How do you work out quantities?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
Can you cook a hog roast in a small garden?
Access and clearance matter more than size. Describe the space and we’ll tell you honestly.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
Is crackling included?
It is: the skin turns to crackling and everyone gets some.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
