Party hog roast for Pyrford
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Most people love a hog roast, but it’s pork. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
- Keep the vegetarian option labelled
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
We set up in the agreed spot, leaving the garden to you and your guests.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.
Party hog roast in Pyrford, carved to order
Milestone birthdays call for something special, and a hog roast in the garden fits the bill. Your guests will smell it from the street. We serve rotisserie chicken, apple sauce and hog roast rolls, and we are regularly asked to cater christenings and naming days and back-garden get-togethers.
For a party in Pyrford, home is frequently the best venue. Tell us about the drive and the garden, and we’ll do the rest. Your quote spells out what’s included: serving times, the menu, staff and anything else agreed, with no surprises on the day.
How it works
Here’s how the day usually runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. At midsummer, it is light in Pyrford 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.
- Start with the date, the address and roughly how many.
- We check the space and send a price.
- We arrive early and get the roast going.
- We carve and serve at food time.
- We clear the serving area and go.
Before we arrive

The closest is West Byfleet station, roughly 1 mile away.
What about kids?
Generally, yes, so we can plan quantities.

The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
Do you bring plates and clear up?

What comes with the hog roast?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is normally fine if the venue is happy.
