Common questions in Newchurch
Is Newchurch close to London?
About 54 miles from central London.
What’s the nearest station to Newchurch?
Ham Street station, about 3.6 miles north-west of the centre.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you’re not left with the mess.
What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
About our hog roast hire in Newchurch
Hog roast hire takes the cooking off your hands. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, ready to carve when you are. We serve rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and coleslaw, and typical bookings are for staff days and open days and club events and presentations.
In a rural place like Newchurch, roast pork in a field is hard to beat. Tell us about gates, tracks and the ground. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Some guests will be vegetarian, so halloumi and vegetable skewers ensure they’re not left with just salad.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Stuffing normally contains gluten.

Is a hog roast right for your event?
Compared with 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. Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Why us?
- Planned to your running order
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- Carved to order by a chef
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling

Bringing a hog roast to Newchurch
Newchurch is about 7 miles west of Hythe, in Kent. Our roaster is a regular sight at events around Newchurch. Newchurch is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent we cover. We cater events right across the region, from Newchurch to Canterbury (about 18 miles away).
For a christening or gathering after a service at a church such as Church of St Peter and St Paul, the roaster can be set up at a hall or home nearby.
Anywhere in TN29, we can roast on site for your guests, from busy streets to quiet lanes. Streets in the area include Links Close, Church View and Patchways, and an event on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster. Close by, we cover events in St Mary in the Marsh (2 miles south), Postling Green (3 miles north-east), Bonnington (3 miles north), Burmarsh (3 miles east) and St Mary's Bay (3 miles south-east).

For event organisers in Newchurch
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We will fit in with site rules.
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we will tell you what we can send.
Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so all you need is the space.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, quoted separately.
Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- Nothing overhead that could catch the heat
