Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Beacon Hill
Which station is closest to Beacon Hill?
Haslemere station, about 2.9 miles south-east of the centre.
Is Beacon Hill too small for a hog roast?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you do DIY hire for parties?
If you are happy to roast and carve, yes. Most people prefer us to cook so they can enjoy the party.
Can you roast in the rain?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Will a hog roast fit in our garden?
Tell us about the garden and the access, and we will tell you if it works.
Do you bring a gazebo?
The roaster has its own cover; guests will want somewhere dry to eat if it rains.
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.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
For event organisers in Beacon Hill
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Planning the cooking spot
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Look for:
- Somewhere for us to park nearby
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
- A word with the neighbours
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.
What we serve
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Crackling
- Hog roast rolls
- Jacket potatoes
- Coleslaw
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
- Rotisserie chicken
- Salads
How it works
Here’s how the day normally runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Sunset in Beacon Hill is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 4:00pm in December, we need light to carve.
- It starts with the date, the address and a rough guest list.
- We check the date and the garden or drive, then send a quote.
- We arrive in good time and start roasting.
- When it’s time to eat, the chef carves and we serve.
- Afterwards we tidy up the serving area.
Before we arrive
- Send final numbers in good time
- Choose someone to meet us on arrival
