The process
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking does not depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. Evenings in Shepperton Green stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; after dark, the serving area and the path to it need good lighting.

How our hog roast hire works in Shepperton Green
With hog roast hire, the cooking happens at your event, which means it’s carved hot, with crisp crackling. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. Whether it is gatherings after a funeral and community events, we can cook halloumi skewers, coleslaw and crackling.
In a smaller place like Shepperton Green, a hog roast in the garden is frequently the simplest option: plenty of room, no hire fees and nobody stuck in the kitchen. Let us know how we reach the garden. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
Full catering or machine hire?
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
You could go for a cold buffet, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
