Party hog roast for Crookham Village
The process
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you are ready. A summer party in Crookham Village stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:05pm; add lights for the evening.
- It starts with the date, the address and a rough guest list.
- We check the space and send a clear quote.
- We arrive in good time and start roasting.
- Our chef carves and our staff serve when you’re ready.
- We pack away and leave the garden tidy.
Preparing for the day
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
How to get a price

Crookham Village: your questions answered
We’re gathering after a service at All Saints' Church: can you cater?
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 usually elsewhere. Send us the address.
What’s the nearest station to Crookham Village?
The closest is Fleet station, roughly 1.9 miles away.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not something we offer.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do you cover Crookham Village?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Crookham Village and Hampshire. Send us the address for a quote.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
We bring plates and clear up after service.
How soon do you get booked up?
The earlier the better for popular dates. But do ask even at short notice: use our quote form.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Plain pork rolls go down well with children, with chicken as an alternative.
Catered or do it yourself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is normally easier.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Rolls and stuffing usually contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Add a dietary question to the invite
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Let us know roughly how many children
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.
Sides turn rolls into a proper party meal.
The menu, dish by dish
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.
Crackling
Crackling takes hours to get right, which is exactly what a slow hog roast gives it.
Space, access and the venue
The roaster needs the right spot, because it cooks outside for several hours, and a little planning goes a long way:
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- Space for our vehicle near the drive
- Flat ground in the garden or on the drive
