Party hog roast near Newingreen
Party food needs to be easy to eat, and pork rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling are just that. Chicken and vegetarian options keep everyone happy. We serve hog roast rolls, coleslaw and a vegan burger or sausage, and we are often booked for back-garden get-togethers and engagement celebrations.
In a small place like Newingreen, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we’ll handle the rest. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.
Prices and what affects them

- The number of people
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. There is no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.

Working with your venue
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If you are organising for someone else, whether you’re a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We’ll keep everyone in the loop.
Step by step
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. Arrival and serving times are agreed beforehand, use the cooking spot you’ve chosen, and get on with roasting and serving. At midsummer, it is light in Newingreen until about 9:15pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. In late September it’s dark by about 7:00pm; add lights for the evening.

Your questions about a hog roast for your party in Newingreen
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes. Wind is something we plan for: a sheltered spot and secure cover.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Can we just hire the roaster?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. Ask and we will talk you through it.
Will there be enough to go round?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we will talk it through when we quote.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Plain pork rolls go down well with children, with chicken as an alternative.
How much room do you need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A picture helps.
Do we need our own staff?
Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.
Do you bring plates and clear up?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
Before you choose a spot
The roaster needs space, cover and a safe distance from anything that could catch the heat. Before booking, check:
- A side gate or passage wide enough to wheel the equipment
- A wet-weather plan for guests
- Clearance from walls, fences and overhanging branches
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

The menu, dish by dish
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a big roast takes hours and must be cooked thoroughly. If you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
