Party hog roast in Burham, slow-roasted on site
A hog roast makes a party at home feel special. We roast on site in Burham, then carve at the time you choose, so you are not stuck in the kitchen. We’re often asked to cater retirement parties and engagement celebrations, with a vegan burger or sausage, jacket potatoes and coleslaw.
Near Burham, parties are often in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. We bring the people to serve and clear up, so you’re not left handing out rolls or tidying up afterwards.
Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
We set up where we agreed and stay out of the way, leaving the garden to you and your guests.
Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.
What the cooking area needs
We need room to cook safely and under cover. Before booking, check:
- Neighbours warned about the smell
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- Somewhere for us to park nearby

Hosting a hog roast party in Burham
Burham is about 3 miles south-west of Chatham, in Medway. We cater parties across Burham and nearby. We cater 68 places in Medway. Our nearest city page is Canterbury, about 26 miles away.
A green space like Burham Marsh is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, normally the council’s. A christening at St Mary's Church followed by a hog roast at home is a simple, popular plan.
For parties in ME1, we just need to know where the roaster can cook and a serving time. Local streets include New Road, St Mary's Walk and Brisley's Row; a party on any of them works well with outdoor space and a way in. Other places close to Burham we cover include Scarborough (1 mile north-west), Eccles (1 mile south), Peters Village (1 mile north-west), Holborough (2 miles west) and Wouldham (2 miles north-west). Further out, we also cater in Gillingham (5 miles north-east), Chatham (3 miles north-east), Rochester (4 miles north), Rainham (6 miles east), Strood (4 miles north) and Luton (4 miles north-east).
A little further out are St. Catherine's Hospital (3.8 miles north) and Medway megaliths (1.3 miles south-east). Green spaces nearby include Burham Down and Blue Bell Hill.
- Schools near Burham include The Holmesdale School (1.9 miles west)
- Pubs nearby include The Windmill pub (under half a mile north)
What a hog roast costs
Each price is built from:
- Distance from us
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The number of people
- Plates or china
Numbers make the biggest difference: bigger groups typically cost less per head, since much of the cost is fixed.
