Party hog roast in Old Woking
Catered or do it yourself?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is typically easier.
About our party hog roast in Old Woking
A party hog roast turns a garden party into an occasion. We set up in your garden or on the drive, roast slowly for hours and carve when you’re ready, so you are not stuck in the kitchen. Popular choices include hog roast rolls, coleslaw and apple sauce, and we’re often booked for back-garden get-togethers and retirement celebrations.
Near Old Woking, parties are often in gardens or fields. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will plan the route. You will know what’s included before you book: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with cooking for everyone yourself, you get to enjoy the party. Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote, with any London charges listed. Tell us the exact address so the quote is accurate.

- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food

- Let us know roughly how many children
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
Make sure the gate or side passage is open when we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Bunting or festoon lights near the serving table make a lovely party setting.
Planners, venues and businesses
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Booking for a club or group? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
What happens on the day
From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can get on with your party. In Old Woking, late May sunsets come at about 8:55pm and midsummer ones at about 9:20pm, so an early-evening carve is typically in daylight. Winter parties, dark by about 3:55pm, need lights by the roaster.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the garden or drive and quote.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
How to prepare
- Ensure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees
- Think about shelter for your guests
