DIY versus a catered hog roast

A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone has to stand at the grill all day. A hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone.

Timing is the tricky part of roasting your own: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.

Choosing a hog roast caterer

What happens on the day

We get there well ahead of service, because a whole hog takes hours to roast. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. At midsummer, it’s light in Peppard Hill until about 9:25pm, so a garden party can run well into the evening. By late September sunset is around 7:10pm, so plan festoon lights for later parties.

  1. Send a photo of where the roaster could go.
  2. We check the space and quote.
  3. On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
  4. Our staff serve rolls and sides.
  5. We leave the garden tidy.

Before we arrive

  • Collect dietary needs and allergies in advance
  • Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
  • Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

How to get a price

Not everyone eats pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food

  • Think about children’s portions

Make sure the gate or side passage is open when we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.

Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed.

How far is Peppard Hill from London?

Roughly 39 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.

Is Peppard Hill too small for a hog roast?

Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Do you serve the food?

Our chef carves and our staff serve, then clear the serving area afterwards.

Do you provide china?

Plates come as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.

The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.

What’s the price?

Each event is priced on its own, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.

How do we prepare?

About the food

Stuffing and apple sauce

Sharp, sweet apple sauce and savoury sage and onion stuffing go with the pork perfectly. Note that stuffing normally contains gluten.

Rolls and gluten-free rolls

A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.

Is a hog roast right for your party?

Compared with a barbecue, you are not stuck flipping burgers all afternoon, and the food is ready for everyone at once. For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
