Party hog roast in Anmore
Party hog roast near Anmore
Street parties and neighbourhood get-togethers suit a hog roast too, once the road closure or permission is in place. We serve apple sauce, crackling and hog roast rolls, and we are regularly asked to cater big birthday parties and reunions.
In a small place like Anmore, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll handle the rest. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Anmore
We are gathering after a service at The Mead End: can you cater?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What’s the nearest station to Anmore?
The closest is Bedhampton station, roughly 4 miles away.
Is crockery included?
Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.
What’s the price?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
When should we book?
Summer Saturdays and December book up first. Quieter dates can often be booked at shorter notice. Ask and we will check.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
For planners, venues and organisers
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, cutting through the richness of the pork.
Crackling
The skin crisps up over the hours of roasting, and there’s a piece for everyone who wants it.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a restaurant booking, you keep the party at home, with room for everyone. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, which is built into the price.
Why book with us
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Carved by our chef in front of your guests
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- An itemised quote

Before you choose a spot
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
- A spot well away from the house
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Should I cook it myself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Planning for dietary needs
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing typically contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
At food time, we carve and serve, then tidy up.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
How it works
We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. Evening parties in Anmore need a little planning: daylight lasts until about 9:20pm at midsummer, but by late September it’s around 7:10pm. Lights by the food keep the party going.
- Send a photo of where the roaster could go.
- We check the space and quote.
- We cook for hours on site.
- Our staff serve rolls and sides.
- We leave the garden tidy.
