Blue Town: your questions answered
How far is Blue Town from London?
About 37 miles from central London.
Could you cook in Barton's Point Coastal Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you bring a gazebo?
We bring cover for the roaster; plan shelter for guests in bad weather.
What about kids?
Generally, yes, so we can plan quantities.
Can you do a hog roast in our back garden?
Tell us about the garden and the access, and we’ll tell you if it works.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.
Should we warn the neighbours?
It is worth warning them: the roast cooks for hours and the smell travels. Some hosts invite them over for a roll.
Can we just hire the roaster?
DIY machine hire is available. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Collect dietary needs when guests reply
- Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so it’s cooking when guests arrive.
Sides turn rolls into a proper party meal.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- Space for our vehicle near the drive
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
- A level patio, lawn or driveway
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.

Should I cook it myself?
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
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.
Parties in Blue Town: homes, halls and local tips
Blue Town is about 3 miles north-west of Minster, in Kent. We bring a hog roast for your party to parties anywhere in Blue Town, as long as there is an outdoor spot to cook. We bring hog roasts to all 922 towns and villages across Kent. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 18 miles away.
A green space like Barton's Point Coastal Park is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, normally the council’s. Christenings and naming days frequently start at a local church such as Parish Church of the Holy Trinity, with a hog roast at home or in a hall afterwards.

Prices and what affects them

- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Season and day of the week
- How many people are eating

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Roast pork
We carve as we serve, so it stays hot and juicy.
For event organisers in Blue Town
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep you both updated.
The process
We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. A summer party in Blue Town stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, which gives a garden party a long evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:00pm; add lights for the evening.
