Hog roast hire in Oxted
Hog roast hire in Oxted, carved to order
We roast the hog at your event, not in a kitchen miles away, which means it is carved hot, with crisp crackling. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. Typical bookings include birthdays and anniversaries and clubhouse events, with new potatoes, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken.
In a smaller place like Oxted, a hog roast in the garden is frequently the simplest option: space to cook, no venue hire and no cooking for you. Let us know how we reach the garden. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling.
Catered or do it yourself?
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Occasions we serve in Oxted

Which station is closest to Oxted?

Can you roast in the rain?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.

Do you serve the crackling?
Crackling is part of every roll for anyone who wants it.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
We do, if you are happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Prices and what affects them
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every event is different. What matters most:
- How long the roast and service take
- Numbers
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Plates or china
Midweek and quieter months are often easier to book, and the menu you choose makes a difference too. Tell us your budget and we will suggest what works.
Details that help
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Where the event is
- Any venue rules
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Any dietary needs or allergies
When you are weighing up caterers, check what each quote actually includes. Ours lists it clearly. To get yours, use our quote form.
Planning the cooking spot
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:
- Space away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Flat outdoor ground for the roaster and a gazebo
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.

Looking after everyone
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Collect allergies with your RSVPs
If timings shift, tell us: we can hold the roast for a while.
A second roast, lamb or chicken, gives people a choice, priced in the quote.
For planners, venues and organisers
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
