About our party hog roast in Dunsfold
A party hog roast turns a garden party into an occasion. We set up in your garden or on the drive, roast slowly for hours and carve when you’re ready, so you can enjoy your own party. Whether it’s close and cul-de-sac parties and family reunions, we can cook crackling, jacket potatoes and a vegan burger or sausage for your guests.
Near Dunsfold, parties are often in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we’ll handle the rest. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.
Planners, venues and businesses
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.

What happens on the day
The secret is time: the meat cooks gently until it is tender while the skin turns into crackling. It rests for a short while before carving. In Dunsfold, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so most summer parties eat in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 3:55pm, need lights by the roaster.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
