Hog roast hire around South Godstone

We bring hog roasts to 395 places in Surrey, from the larger towns to small villages. We cater events right across the region, from South Godstone to London (about 19 miles away).
For a christening or gathering after a service at a church such as St Stephen, the roaster can be set up at a hall or home nearby. If you had Tilburstow Hill in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we can’t simply set up a roaster in a public park.
For events in RH9, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and a serving time. Whether your event is on Eastbourne Road, Oaklands and Woodlands Drive or anywhere nearby, we can set up and roast there.

How it works
Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, and sides go out at the same time. Afterwards we clear the serving area and pack away. By late September, sunset in South Godstone is around 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing normally contains gluten.
Spit-roast lamb
With lamb as well, there are two roasts to choose from, which works well for larger groups.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
