A hog roast near Ottershaw
Should I cook it myself?

You could go for a cold buffet, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.

Ottershaw questions
Can you cater after a service at Christ Church?
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’ll gather.
What’s the nearest station to Ottershaw?
The closest is Chertsey station, roughly 1.9 miles away.
What meats can we have?
Add lamb or rotisserie chicken alongside the pork. There are vegetarian and vegan options as well.
Is mains power needed?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Will there be enough to go round?
The roast is chosen to suit how many you’re feeding, so tell us your best estimate. The quote sets it out.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food isn’t affected. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
Can you work around our timings?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll adjust.
Allergies and dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Count anyone who does not eat pork, so we can bring lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Put the menu on the invitation
Name someone to meet us, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.
Ask for gluten-free rolls for anyone who needs them.
