FAQs for Horsell
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Mary the Virgin: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Is Horsell close to London?
About 23 miles from central London.
Where does the hog roast go?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Do you cover Horsell?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Horsell and Surrey. Send us the address for a quote.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. We will confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Can we choose catered or DIY?
Both are available: we can cater fully or hire out the machine. Catering is the most popular choice.
What happens on the day
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. Evenings in Horsell stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; once it’s dark, we need light at the carving station.

For planners, venues and organisers
For venues and planners, we’re happy to work alongside your team, sharing timings and a site plan.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it’s worth asking first. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Next to a barbecue, a hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone, so nobody stands at a grill all afternoon. Our guide compares the two. UK price guides vary widely: roughly £10 a head for a simple roll, rising past £20 with more included. We quote every event individually, with everything listed.
Why book our hog roast in Horsell

Planning the cooking spot
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:
- A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls

Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.

We cover events in every part of the GU21 and GU22 postcode area and the streets around it. Streets in the area include Elm Road, Heath Road and Popes Lane, and an event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster.
