How the day works
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. At midsummer, it’s light in Norney until about 9:20pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:05pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.
- 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.
Getting ready for the day

Questions from Norney
What’s the nearest station to Norney?
Godalming station, about 1.6 miles east of the centre.
How far is Norney from London?
About 32 miles from central London, and we cover it as standard.
What happens in bad weather?
We cook under a gazebo, so rain is not a problem for the roast. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
Do children like hog roasts?
Yes, and tell us how many children are coming, so we can plan quantities.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. A photo helps.
Can we cook it ourselves?
You can hire the machine. We’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works.
Do we need to wash up?
We tidy the serving area.

Thinking of a hog roast in Middlebriars Wood? Cooking in a park needs the owner’s permission, normally the council’s, and many parks don’t allow it.

Space, access and the venue
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:

- Parking close to the house
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.
What we serve
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Coleslaw
- Halloumi skewers (V)
- Salads
- Crackling
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
- Rotisserie chicken

Allergies and dietary needs
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
- Request gluten-free rolls
We get there early to start the roast, so it’s cooking when guests arrive.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.
Full catering or machine hire?
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. 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 you’d rather not worry about it, let us cook.
