Party hog roast for Bewbush
Looking after everyone
Some guests won’t eat pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
A cooked roast holds for a while, so tell us if timings change.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.
Party hog roast near Bewbush

What happens on the day
The secret is time: hours of gentle heat make the pork soft and juicy while the skin crisps into crackling. Then it rests briefly before our chef carves. At midsummer, it’s light in Bewbush until about 9:20pm, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.

Should I cook it myself?
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Bewbush questions
Is Bewbush close to London?
About 28 miles from central London.
Can you cater after a service at St Alban's?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
How far ahead should we book?
Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
What space does the roaster need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We will check it with you before booking.
Do you need power or water?
Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Let us know what’s on site.
Do children like hog roasts?
Plain pork rolls go down well with children, with chicken as an alternative.
Is our garden suitable?
Most gardens can work, and a way to wheel the equipment through. A picture helps.
About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls or plates? Rolls are quicker; plates suit a sit-down meal, and gluten-free rolls are available on request.
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved in front of you, a mix of shoulder and leg, and served hot.
Organising for someone else?
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.
