Party hog roast in Newington, slow-roasted on site
A party at home needs a little planning for the roaster: level ground outdoors, clear of the house and fences. We will check it with you. For big birthday parties and family reunions, we’ll put together a menu of jacket potatoes, crackling and coleslaw and more.
In a place like Newington, a party at home is usually the easiest option. Let us know how we reach the garden, and we’ll bring everything else. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours.
Newington questions
Is Newington close to London?
Roughly 34 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
Do you cater at venues in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll follow the site rules.
Is a hog roast good for a children’s party?
Yes, and tell us how many children are coming, so we get the amounts right.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear the serving area, and we take our equipment with us.
What if it rains?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain isn’t a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Will there be enough to go round?
Quantities are based on your numbers, and we will confirm everything in writing.
What about coeliacs?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Stuffing generally contains gluten, so check the allergen information.
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.
Catered or do it yourself?
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Planning for dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. A few tips:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Think about children’s portions
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask about allergies on the invitation
We set up where we agreed and stay out of the way, leaving the garden to you and your guests.
Sides turn rolls into a proper party meal.
Prices and what affects them
The price comes down to:
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Details that help
When you get in touch, it helps to include:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Any venue rules
When you’re weighing up caterers, ask each one exactly what’s included. Ours lists it clearly. To get yours, fill in our quote form.
The process
The roaster cooks outdoors, under a gazebo on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We will agree the spot with you beforehand. In Newington, late May sunsets come at about 8:50pm and midsummer ones at about 9:15pm, so an early-evening carve is usually in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 3:50pm, need lights by the roaster.
- Send a photo of where the roaster could go.
- We check the space and quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- Our staff serve rolls and sides.
- We leave the garden tidy.
How to prepare
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
