How our party hog roast works in Cudham
Throwing a party is hard work. With a hog roast, the food is sorted: we roast, carve, serve and clear. Whether it’s neighbourhood parties and anniversary parties, we can cook coleslaw, a vegan burger or sausage and apple sauce.
Near Cudham, parties are often in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will handle the rest. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp.
For planners, venues and organisers
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.

The closest is Chelsfield station, roughly 3.1 miles away.
Do you clear up?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Can you work around our timings?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Can we cook it ourselves?
If you’re happy to roast and carve, yes. Catering is the easier option.
Will a hog roast fit in our garden?
Describe the space and the way in, and we will tell you if it works.

Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.

Prices and what affects them

- Access to the cooking area
- Travel to Cudham
- The number of people
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What we need to know
Good details mean a good quote. Please include:
- Rough numbers
- The date and time of the event

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 typically easier.
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
