Party hog roast in Bredgar, carved to order
A party at home needs a little planning for the roaster: a level spot away from the house and trees, under cover. We’ll help you choose. Typical bookings include christenings and naming days and reunions, with a vegan burger or sausage, coleslaw and jacket potatoes.
A country party near Bredgar is perfect for a hog roast: slow-roasted and eaten outside. Plan shelter in case it rains. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you are not left handing out rolls.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a buffet, a hog roast is hot and freshly carved. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Ask us and we will suggest the best fit for your budget.
Why book with us
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- An itemised quote
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit

Full catering or machine hire?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Common questions in Bredgar
How far is Bredgar from London?
Roughly 37 miles from the centre of London.
Do you come out to small places like Bredgar?
No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.
Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, at a safe distance from walls and tents. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Can you work around our timings?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will fit around changes.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we don’t offer halal meat.
What happens after service?
We pack everything away after service, so you’re not left with the mess.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Send us the details and we’ll quote.
Is clearing up included?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
Planning for dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
What affects the price in Bredgar
Things that change the price:
- How long the roast and service take
- Site access
- Crockery choices
- Distance from us
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
Getting an accurate quote
To get the best quote, tell us:
- Your date and serving time
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Where the event is
- Rules from the venue or landowner

The process
Service is quick once we start carving: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. A summer party in Bredgar stays light until about 9:15pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:00pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

- You get a check on the date and the cooking spot, and a quote.
- We set up early and get the hog roasting.
