Party hog roast in Springhead, carved to order
A hog roast works for street parties as well, with the right permissions. We are frequently asked to cater big family get-togethers and street parties, with crackling, a vegan burger or sausage and rotisserie chicken.
In a place like Springhead, a party at home is normally the easiest option. Tell us about the drive and the garden, and we’ll do the rest. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
FAQs for Springhead
What’s the nearest station to Springhead?
The closest is Ebbsfleet International station, roughly 0.9 miles away.
Is Springhead close to London?
Roughly 19 miles from the centre of London.
Do you bring a gazebo?
Not for the cooking, but plan somewhere dry for guests.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
We do, if you’re happy to roast and carve yourself. We’ll explain the details with your quote.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
How long does a hog roast take to cook?
A whole hog roasts for several hours, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
Do you come to Springhead?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Springhead and the rest of Kent included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
Prices and what affects them
A few things make the biggest difference to the price:
- How easy it is to reach the spot
- The date and time of year
- Whether you want china
- Menu choices and extras
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, plus travel and access. Every booking is different, so we quote each one individually.
Details that help
To get the best quote, tell us:
- Dietary requirements
- A picture of the cooking area
- Where the event is
- Rough numbers

Step by step
The roaster cooks outdoors, on a level, open spot under cover, well clear of walls, tents and trees. We agree exactly where before the day. Autumn parties in Springhead get dark early: about 7:00pm by late September and 3:50pm by December. Plan lights for the path and the food.
- 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.
- Afterwards we tidy up the serving area.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Send final numbers in good time
- Let us know about tight access

Working with your venue
Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, especially on the day.
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before booking. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it is a long day’s work, 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, especially outdoors.
Allergies and dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
Clear the route to the garden before we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Sides turn rolls into a proper party meal.
Why choose a hog roast in Springhead?
