Kingsley questions
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will follow the site rules.
Can you cater after a service at Church of All Saints?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.
How do you work out quantities?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. The quote sets it out.
How much room do you need?
A flat, open spot outside, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. Send us a photo if you’re unsure.
Is crockery included?
We bring plates as standard. If you’d like china, ask and we’ll add it to the quote.
Do you come to Kingsley?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Kingsley and the rest of Hampshire included. Send us the address for a quote.
Can you do a hog roast in our back garden?
Describe the space and the way in, and we’ll tell you if it works.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
How our party hog roast works in Kingsley
Milestone birthdays call for something special, and a hog roast in the garden fits the bill. The smell sets the mood. On the menu are jacket potatoes, coleslaw and a vegan burger or sausage, and typical bookings are for milestone birthdays and back-garden get-togethers.
Near Kingsley, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will handle the rest. The hog is roasted on site at your party, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you are ready to eat.
What the cooking area needs
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- A wet-weather plan for guests
- A word with the neighbours
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Full catering or machine hire?
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan guests can have a vegan burger or sausage, so everyone has something hot.

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

If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.

The process
People love watching the carving: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it.

- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We tidy up and pack away.
Preparing for the day
