A hog roast near Marehill

Party hog roast in Marehill, slow-roasted on site

After a christening near Marehill, a hog roast at home means everyone eats together, and nobody misses the celebration. We are often asked to cater engagement celebrations and milestone birthdays, with hog roast rolls, apple sauce and rotisserie chicken.

Near Marehill, parties are frequently in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we will plan the route. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Questions from Marehill

How far is Marehill from London?

About 41 miles from central London.

Is Marehill too small for a hog roast?

No, we come to small places too. Let us know about access and the cooking spot.

Do you cover Marehill?

We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we’ll check the date.

Do we need our own staff?

No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.

Can we hire the hog roast machine for our party?

If you are happy to roast and carve, yes. Most people prefer us to cook so they can enjoy the party.

What if it rains?

The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.

Can you be flexible on serving time?

Within reason, we can. Keep us posted on the day and we’ll adjust.

What about the neighbours?

Give them a heads-up.

A closer look at the menu

Salads, potatoes and coleslaw

Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, while salads and potatoes make a plated meal.

Roast pork

Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, and served hot.

  • Distance from us

Organising for someone else?

If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.

Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, particularly when timings shift.

Full catering or machine hire?

Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.

A hog roast or other catering?

Next to a party buffet, a hog roast is hot and freshly carved, and nothing sits out all afternoon. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

Looking after everyone

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

  • Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
  • Add a dietary question to the invite
  • Think about children’s portions
  • Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option

Our chef carves and our staff serve at the agreed time, then clear up the serving area.

Rotisserie chicken is popular at family parties.

  • Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
  • Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
  • Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
  • Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
