DIY versus a catered hog roast

You could roast a hog yourself, but it is 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.

Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

Roast pork

Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and our chef carves it to order.

Stuffing and apple sauce

Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.

How to compare hog roast caterers

Your questions about a hog roast in Hook

Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?

Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will follow the site rules.

We are gathering after a service at St Paul's: can you cater?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.

What’s included?

Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.

Do you travel across Greater London?

Greater London is part of our area. Contact us for a price.

Is it just pork?

It’s built around the hog, with lamb and chicken as extras.

How long does a hog roast take to cook?

Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.

Can you be flexible on serving time?

We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.

Who serves?

Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.

Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.

Step by step

Expect a calm, organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and roast, carve and serve without fuss. Late September evenings in Hook lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it is nearer 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the space and quote.
  3. We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival
  • Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot

Prices and what affects them

Your quote depends on:

  • Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
  • The number of people
  • The journey to the venue
  • How long the roast and service take

The main driver is numbers: bigger groups typically cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.

What we need to know

When you enquire, it helps to include:

  • Which meats and sides you’d like
  • A picture of the cooking area
  • The venue or postcode
  • Anything the venue has asked for

Send us the date, the address or KT9 postcode and rough numbers, plus when you’d like to eat. We’ll check the date and send a quote. Fill in our quote form.

Space, access and the venue

Planning the cooking spot is the key. A quick checklist:

  • Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
  • Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Parking near the spot

Hook is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Hook: venues, access and local tips

Hook is about 2 miles north-west of Ewell, in Greater London. We set up the roaster at gardens, car parks, yards and venues around Hook and the surrounding area. We cover 764 places across Greater London. Our bookings stretch from Hook to London (about 13 miles away).

For anyone arriving by rail, there is a station right in Hook: Chessington North station. A green space like Stokes Field is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, generally the council’s. Hook is within about 8 miles of the Surrey Hills National Landscape. Ask your venue about gas cooking and access.

Events anywhere in KT9, KT6 and KT10 start with an outdoor spot for the roaster and roughly how many guests. From Elm Road, Moor Lane and Glen Road or anywhere nearby, we can set up and roast there. Hook is on the A243, so it’s easy for us to reach with the equipment. If your venue is just outside Hook, we also cover Ditton Hill (1 mile north), Barwell (1 mile south-west), Long Ditton (1 mile north), Hinchley Wood (1 mile north-west) and Claygate (1 mile west). Larger places within reach include London (13 miles north-east), City of Westminster (12 miles north-east), Marylebone (12 miles north-east), Kensington (10 miles north-east), St Pancras (14 miles north-east) and Shoreditch (15 miles north-east).

A little further out are Chessington Castle Hill (1 mile south-east) and Municipal Borough of Surbiton (0.6 miles north-east). The countryside around Hook includes Kingston Hill Road area and The Lake.
