Hog roast hire for Surbiton

About our hog roast hire in Surbiton

A hog roast is one of the simplest ways to feed a crowd in Surbiton: one roast, slow-cooked for hours, carved in front of everyone. Everything comes with us, and our staff serve and clear. We are frequently asked to cater village fêtes and school fairs and wakes and memorial gatherings, serving spit-roast lamb, salads and rotisserie chicken.

In Surbiton, the roaster might go in a garden, a church car park or a works yard. Let us know about the route in. Our staff serve and clear, so you’re not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.

About the food

Roast pork

We carve as we serve, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.

Spit-roast lamb

Lamb roasted on the spit is a lovely alternative to pork, especially for guests who do not eat pork.

A hog roast in Surbiton: local details

Prices and what affects them

Here’s what affects the price:

  • Access to the cooking area
  • Menu choices and extras
  • The date and time of year
  • Distance from us

Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups normally cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.

Details that help

To get the best quote, send us:

  • Where the event is
  • Roughly how many people
  • The date and time of the event
  • Which meats and sides you’d like

Planning ahead? Popular dates fill up early, especially summer Saturdays and December Fridays. Tell us your date and we’ll check it: send us your details through our quote form.

What happens on the day

Your timings come first. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. In Surbiton, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is usually in daylight. For winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need light by the roaster and the serving table.

  1. We start with a few details about your event.
  2. We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
  3. We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
  4. On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
  5. Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.

Preparing for the day

  • Have a level outdoor spot ready
  • Check there is a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
  • Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

Diets, allergies and alternatives

We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:

  • Ask about allergies when you send invitations
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
  • Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
  • If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option

Let us know if the day runs late: a cooked roast can be held for a while before carving.

China crockery is available on request, at an extra cost.

Planners, venues and businesses

Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.

For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers.

DIY versus a catered hog roast

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.

Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

Where the roaster can go in Surbiton

Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:

  • A marquee, hall or barn as a wet-weather plan
  • Any venue rules sorted in advance
  • A level, open spot outdoors for the roaster

Surbiton is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
