Your questions about a hog roast in Horsemere Green

Is Horsemere Green close to London?

About 52 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.

Do you come out to small places like Horsemere Green?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

How soon do you get booked up?

Summer Saturdays and December book up first. For other dates, a few weeks can be enough. Send your date and we’ll check.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.

What space does the roaster need?

A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.

What meats can we have?

The hog is the centrepiece, with lamb and chicken as extras.

Is our garden big enough?

It depends on the space and access more than size. Tell us about the garden and we will advise.

When do you start roasting?

Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.

What happens on the day

We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: in Horsemere Green, sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 4:00pm.

  1. First, you send us your date, address, numbers and serving time.
  2. We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
  3. On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
  4. We carve and serve when you are ready to eat.
  5. We clear the serving area and pack away.

Getting ready for the day

  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Choose someone to meet us on arrival
  • Confirm numbers ahead of the day

How to get a price

The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Fill in our quote form.

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.

We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

What the cooking area needs

The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:

  • Somewhere nearby to park our vehicle
  • A way to wheel the roaster to the spot
  • Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

From the roaster

  • Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
  • New potatoes
  • Salads
  • Rotisserie chicken
  • Hog roast rolls
  • Halloumi skewers (V)
  • Spit-roast lamb
  • Stuffing
  • Coleslaw
  • Crackling
  • Apple sauce
  • Roast or jacket potatoes

Prices and what affects them

Your quote depends on:

  • How long the roast and service take
  • Access to the cooking area
  • Travel to Horsemere Green
  • Menu choices and extras

Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.

What to tell us

When you enquire, it helps to include:

  • A picture of the cooking area
  • Rules from the venue or landowner
  • Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
  • Your date and serving time

Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Use our quote form.

Planning for dietary needs

Some guests will not eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Put the menu on the invitation
  • Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Add a dietary question to your invitations

Expect us to be on site for much of the day, because the roast starts hours before you eat.

China crockery is available on request, at an extra cost.
