Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Hire the machine or book catering? DIY hire works for relaxed get-togethers; catering suits bigger parties. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

FAQs for Red Hill
We are gathering after a service at Church of St Peter and St Paul: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
What’s the nearest station to Red Hill?
Wateringbury station, about 0.8 miles south-west of the centre.
Do we need to provide electricity?
No, the roast is cooked on gas. Let us know what’s on site.
What do you need from us on the day?
Just the agreed spot and a contact on the day. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Do you do DIY hire for parties?
If you’re happy to roast and carve, yes. Catering is the easier option.
Is clearing up included?
Plates come as standard and our staff clear the serving area.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.

Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.

How we price a hog roast for your party
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Numbers
- Menu choices and extras
- The journey to the venue
- Access to the cooking area
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, plus travel and access. There’s no one-size price, so we quote each one individually.
What to tell us
When you get in touch, please mention:
- The address or postcode
- Allergies we should know about
- A photo of the cooking area
- Your date and serving time
Numbers not final yet? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, then confirm closer to the date. Fill in our quote form.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
- Think about children’s portions
- Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
Ensure the gate or side passage is open when we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Add coleslaw, salads and jacket potatoes to make it a full meal.
What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
Slow-roasted pork is the heart of the menu: carved thick or thin, as people like it, straight from the roaster.
Stuffing and apple sauce
No hog roast roll is complete without sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce, balancing the rich, salty pork.
