How our party hog roast works in Rushmoor
For a christening or naming day in Rushmoor, a hog roast at home means everyone eats together, without anyone stuck cooking. We’re frequently asked to cater back-garden get-togethers and ruby, golden and diamond anniversaries, with rotisserie chicken, jacket potatoes and a vegan burger or sausage.
In a small place like Rushmoor, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Let us know about access, and we’ll plan the route. Plates come as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
Why choose a hog roast in Rushmoor?
DIY or catered? DIY suits confident cooks and relaxed parties; catering suits bigger or more important parties. Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Why Rushmoor hosts choose us
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Our staff serve and clear

Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans
- Find out who does not eat pork so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so it’s cooking when guests arrive.
Ask about china for a sit-down party, at extra cost.
What we serve, dish by dish
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. Gluten-free rolls can be provided on request.
Rotisserie chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a simple, popular alternative to pork, turned until the skin is golden.
Hosting a hog roast party in Rushmoor
Rushmoor is about 4 miles south-east of Farnham, in Surrey. We cover parties in Rushmoor, along with the towns and villages around it. We cover all 395 towns and villages across Surrey. Our bookings stretch from Rushmoor to Guildford (10 miles away).
If you had The Flashes in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we can’t simply set up a roaster in a public park. Among the historic houses close to Rushmoor are Farnham Castle (4.8 miles north-west). Grand settings like these frequently have strict rules on caterers, so for most parties a garden or hired hall is simpler. Rushmoor is within about 4 miles of the Surrey Hills National Landscape, so many gardens around here have a great outlook.
This part of Surrey takes in GU10, and we can cater your party anywhere in it. Streets in the area include Sandy Lane, Lowicks Road and Tilford Road, and a party on any of them works with a garden, drive or yard for the roaster. If your venue is just outside Rushmoor, we also cover Tilford Common (1 mile north), Pitch Place (1 mile south-east), Crosswater (1 mile south-west), Thursley (2 miles east) and Green Cross (2 miles south). Within a short drive, we also cover Guildford (10 miles north-east), Woking (13 miles north-east), Camberley (12 miles north), Farnham (4 miles north-west), Frimley (11 miles north) and Haslemere (5 miles south).
A little further out are Haslemere and District Hospital (4.9 miles south) and Farnham Castle (4.8 miles north-west). Green spaces nearby include Gibbet Hill and Upper Lake.
- Pubs nearby include Bel And The Dragon-Churt pub (0.9 miles south)
What a hog roast costs
We work out each quote from:
- Time on site
- Menu choices and extras
- The number of people
- Plates or china
The main driver is numbers: bigger groups normally cost less per head, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
What we need to know
Here’s what we will ask:
- An estimate of numbers
- Your menu choices
- What the outdoor space is like
- The venue or postcode
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so it’s easy to compare like for like. Send us your details through our quote form.
Full catering or machine hire?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but nothing beats hot pork and crackling carved in front of you.
Step by step
We arrive hours before you want to eat, since slow roasting cannot be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. At midsummer, it’s light in Rushmoor 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.
- You tell us the date, your address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- You get a check on the date and the cooking spot, and a quote.
- We arrive in good time and start roasting.
- We carve and serve at the agreed time.
- We pack away and leave the garden tidy.
How to prepare
- Send final numbers in good time
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
