Looking after everyone
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Find out who does not eat pork for the alternatives
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can bring everything through.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.
Hosting a hog roast party in Davington
Davington is about 7 miles east of Sittingbourne, in Kent. Our roaster is a regular sight at parties around Davington. Davington is one of 922 towns and villages in Kent where we cater. We cater events right across the region, from Davington to Canterbury (9 miles away).
A green space like Oare Meadow is tempting, but a gas-fired roaster there needs the landowner’s say-so, usually the council’s. A christening at Church of St Mary Magdalene followed by a hog roast at home is a simple, popular plan.
Anywhere in ME13, we can bring the roaster to you, from busy streets to quiet lanes. That could mean a party in a garden on Ham Road, Back Lane and Quay Lane, as long as there is somewhere outside to cook. We also bring hog roasts to parties in Faversham (1 mile south-east), The Brents (1 mile east), Preston (1 mile south-east), Ospringe (1 mile south-west) and Oare (1 mile north). Further out, we also cater in Ashford (12 miles south), Canterbury (9 miles east), Sittingbourne (7 miles west), Whitstable (7 miles east), Herne Bay (11 miles east) and Minster (8 miles north-west).
Well-known places in the area include Newnham Castle (4.2 miles south-west).
- Local schools include Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School (0.5 miles east)
- Pubs nearby include The Bull Inn (within half a mile south)

Should I cook it myself?
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Is a hog roast right for your party?
Hire the machine or book catering? DIY suits confident cooks and relaxed parties; catering suits bigger or more important parties. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we are on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
