Party hog roast for Sandhills
Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
About our party hog roast in Sandhills
A hog roast makes a party at home feel special. We set up in your garden or on the drive, roast slowly for hours and carve when you’re ready, so you can enjoy your own party. On the menu are coleslaw, apple sauce and rotisserie chicken, and we are frequently booked for getting-engaged parties and christenings.
Near Sandhills, parties are often in gardens or fields. Let us know about access, and we will plan the route. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
What comes off the roaster
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Apple sauce brings sweetness and sharpness are the traditional pairing. Note that stuffing generally contains gluten.
What a hog roast costs
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- Menu choices and extras
- Whether you want china
- Time on site
- Distance from us
A hog roast is often good value for a crowd, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

Sandhills: your questions answered
Can you cater after a service at Church of All Saints?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
Is there a non-pork option?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. We do not offer halal meat.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Do we need a marquee for a party hog roast?
The roaster has its own cover; guests will want somewhere dry to eat if it rains.
What’s included?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
Do you clear up?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
