About our party hog roast in Mogador
A hog roast works for street parties as well, once the road closure or permission is in place. Whether it’s retirement celebrations and anniversary parties, we’ll put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, hog roast rolls and apple sauce and more.
In a small place like Mogador, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we will handle the rest. The hog is roasted on site at your party, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.
Planners, venues and businesses
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
If you are planning an event on someone’s behalf, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep everyone in the loop.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
Rolls make a hog roast easy to eat anywhere. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and our chef carves it to order.
Planning the cooking spot
It’s worth planning the cooking area in advance. The ideal spot has:
- A gazebo, marquee or room indoors for guests if it rains
- Somewhere for us to park nearby
- Access for the roaster through a gate or passage

Mogador parties: what to know
Mogador is about 2 miles north-west of Reigate, in Surrey. Hosts in Mogador book us for parties of all sizes. We cover all 395 towns and villages in Surrey. We cater events right across the region, from Mogador to Guildford (15 miles away).
After a christening at a church like Church of Jesus Christ and the Wisdom of God, a hog roast in the garden is an easy way to feed family and friends. If you had Betchworth Quarry and Lime Kilns in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we can’t simply set up a roaster in a public park. The Surrey Hills National Landscape is within about 4 miles of Mogador, so many gardens around here have a great outlook.
We cater parties across KT20 and the streets around it. Streets in the area include Margery Grove and Mogador Road, and a party on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster. Other places close to Mogador we cover include Margery (1 mile east), Lower Kingswood (1 mile north-east), Walton on the Hill (2 miles north-west), Reigate (2 miles south-east) and Buckland (2 miles south-west). We also serve nearby towns such as Guildford (15 miles west), Epsom (6 miles north), Horley (6 miles south), Redhill (3 miles south-east), Ewell (7 miles north) and Walton-on-Thames (12 miles north-west).
Other landmarks nearby include Headley Court (3.2 miles north-west) and Reigate Castle (1.7 miles south-east). Green spaces nearby include Mercers Lake and Colley Hill.
- Nearby schools include Reigate College (1.7 miles south-east)
- Local pubs include The Sportsman pub (within half a mile north)
A hog roast or other catering?
Next to a barbecue, no one gets stuck at the grill, and the food is ready for everyone at once. 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.

Questions from Mogador
Which station is closest to Mogador?
Reigate station, about 1.6 miles south-east of the centre.
Can you cater after a service at Church of Jesus Christ and the Wisdom of God?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What’s the price?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, so you are not left with the mess.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?
Not for the cooking, but plan somewhere dry for guests.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Generally, yes, so we can plan quantities.
What affects the price in Mogador
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every party is different. The main factors are:
- Distance from us
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- How long the roast and service take
- How many people are eating
Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Getting an accurate quote
These are the details we need:
- The address or postcode
- An estimate of numbers
- The date and time of the event
- Any dietary needs or allergies
It is easy to get a price: date, place, numbers and serving time. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
