Party hog roast in Chessington, slow-roasted on site

A big birthday deserves a centrepiece, and a whole hog roasting in the garden is exactly that. The smell sets the mood. Whether it’s close and cul-de-sac parties and christenings and naming days, we can cook crackling, coleslaw and rotisserie chicken and more.

Throwing a party in Chessington? A hog roast keeps you out of the kitchen, at home or a hall with a garden. A long roast means a word with the neighbours. Let us know about allergies and dietary needs in advance, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish before you book.

The price comes down to:

  • The journey to the venue
  • How many people are eating
  • Time on site
  • Which meats and sides you choose

A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds a lot of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

  • Rough numbers
  • Anything the venue has asked for
  • A photo of the cooking area
  • The date and when you’d like to eat

We price every booking individually, based on numbers, menu, timings and distance. Ask us for a quote for your party: use our quote form.

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Chessington

Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Chessington?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard usually works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.

We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Mary the Virgin: can you cater?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is normally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.

Can you work around our timings?

Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we’ll fit around changes.

Can you do gluten-free?

We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.

Do children like hog roasts?

Most children like pork in a soft roll, with chicken as an alternative.

Will there be enough to go round?

Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will talk it through when we quote.

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. We don’t offer halal meat.

What do people get?

Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.

Planning for dietary needs

A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:

  • Count non-pork eaters for the alternatives
  • Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
  • Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
  • Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food

Warn the neighbours: roasting takes hours and the smell travels.

Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.

Where the roaster can go in Chessington

The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:

  • A word with the neighbours
  • A step-free way into the garden
  • Space for our vehicle near the drive

As a London location, Chessington is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.

How the day works

Here’s how the day typically runs: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. By late September, sunset in Chessington is about 7:05pm; by December it is about 3:55pm. Light the garden path and the serving area.

  1. It starts with the date, the address and a rough guest list.
  2. We check the date and the garden or drive, then send a quote.
  3. We set up early and get the hog roasting.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve when you are ready.
  5. Afterwards we tidy up the serving area.

Preparing for the day

  • Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
