Slow-roasted pork in Heyshott Green
Hog roast hire for your event in Heyshott Green
Hiring a hog roast means a whole hog cooked slowly on site, over several hours, outdoors under cover. Then our chef carves it and the team serves it in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and a piece of crackling. We’re often asked to cater garden parties and barbecues and staff days and open days, serving hog roast rolls, salads and coleslaw.
In a small place like Heyshott Green, a hog roast frequently goes in a field, a farmyard or a big garden. Country lanes and long drives are fine if we know about them, and level, firm ground is the key. Our staff serve and clear, so nobody in your party has to serve.

Catered or do it yourself?
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Why choose a hog roast in Heyshott Green?
Next to a barbecue, one roast feeds everyone at once, so nobody stands at a grill all afternoon. See our guide to hog roast or barbecue. Compare like for like: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

Working with your venue
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will liaise with them on access and set-up.
Looking after everyone
Most people love a hog roast, but it is pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, then clear up.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
