Heath End questions
Can you do a hog roast in Weybourne LNR?
Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first.
What’s the nearest station to Heath End?
Aldershot station, about 1.4 miles north-east of the centre.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
Do we need cover?
We cover the cooking area, but plan somewhere dry for guests.
Do we need to wash up?
We bring plates and clear up after service.
What’s included?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Can you work around our timings?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and a cooked roast can be held for a while if things run late.

DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.

How it works
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too.

- We cook for hours on site.
- Our staff serve rolls and sides.

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
Ensure the gate or side passage is open when we arrive, so we can bring everything through.
Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.
Before you choose a spot
A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:
- Space away from the house, fences, sheds and trees
- A wet-weather plan for guests
- A heads-up for next door
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
