Planning a party in Ottershaw

We bring hog roasts to all 395 towns and villages across Surrey, from the larger towns to small villages. Our bookings stretch from Ottershaw to Guildford (8 miles away).

Step by step
When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. It then roasts slowly for several hours, worked back from your serving time. Sunset in Ottershaw is about 8:55pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so most summer parties eat 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 set up hours ahead.
- At food time, the chef carves and we serve.
- We clear the serving area and go.
How to prepare
- Gather dietary requirements early
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Check there is nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat

Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork for the alternatives
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing generally contains gluten
If the party runs late, the roast can wait a little, so just let us know.
