How our hog roast hire works in Peters Village
Booking a hog roast means you do not have to cook. We arrive hours before you eat, set up under cover and roast slowly, then carve and serve at the time you choose. Whether it’s christmas parties and sports clubs and societies, we will put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and crackling and more.
In and around Peters Village, gardens and village halls are common choices. If access is tight, we will plan around it. We bring the roaster, the cover and everything we need to cook and serve, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

The closest is Snodland station, roughly 1 mile away.
Is crackling included?
Yes, the crackling is shared out as we carve.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.

Pork is the classic, and you can add spit-roast lamb or rotisserie chicken. There are vegetarian and vegan options as well.

- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit

Step by step
Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. In Peters Village, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:00pm in late September, so summer evening service is generally in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:50pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.
- You share the when, where and how many.
- We check the space and quote.
- We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve.
- We pack away and leave you to it.
Before we arrive
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Let us know about tight access

Allergies and dietary needs

- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen information
Name someone to meet us, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.
