How our party hog roast works in Kingsclere

Milestone birthdays call for something special, and a hog roast in the garden fits the bill. Your guests will smell it from the street. Typical bookings include summer parties in the garden and engagement parties, with coleslaw, crackling and apple sauce.

In a place like Kingsclere, a party at home is normally the easiest option. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we’ll bring everything else. Timings are planned around your party, because the roast has to start hours before you eat.

Step by step

We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. A summer party in Kingsclere stays light until about 9:25pm at midsummer, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it is dark by about 7:10pm; add lights for the evening.

  1. Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
  2. We check the space and send a price.
  3. We arrive early and get the roast going.
  4. We carve and serve at food time.
  5. We clear the serving area and go.

Before we arrive

  • Give us a contact number for the day
  • Ensure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
  • Gather dietary requirements early

Looking after everyone

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. Here are a few tips:

  • Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
  • Request gluten-free rolls
  • Add a dietary question to the invite
  • Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans

A cooked roast holds for a while, so just let us know.

Ask about china for a sit-down party, quoted separately.

What the cooking area needs

A hog roast cooks outdoors for hours, so the spot matters, so a few things are worth checking:

  • Neighbours warned about the smell
  • Access for the roaster through a gate or passage
  • A spot well away from the house

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think.

We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Mary: can you cater?

Do we need to wash up?

Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.

Plates come as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we will add it to the quote.

Who serves?

Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.

Do you need power or water?

Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.

  • Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
  • Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
