Party hog roast in West Farleigh
How our party hog roast works in West Farleigh
A hog roast works for street parties as well, once the road closure or permission is in place. Whether it’s getting-engaged parties and 18th, 21st, 40th, 50th and 60th birthdays, we’ll put together a menu of a vegan burger or sausage, jacket potatoes and apple sauce.
A country party near West Farleigh is perfect for a hog roast: roasted all afternoon and carved on the lawn. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.
Common questions in West Farleigh
Which station is closest to West Farleigh?
East Farleigh station, about 1.4 miles east of the centre.
Can you do a hog roast in Quarry Wood?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you bring a gazebo?
Not for the cooking, but a gazebo or indoor space for guests is a good backup.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
What happens in bad weather?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
What do people get?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Is clearing up included?
We bring plates and clear up after service.
Should we warn the neighbours?
Let them know in advance, especially if the roaster is near a fence.
The process
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the pork cooks slowly for hours, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. By late September, sunset in West Farleigh is about 7:00pm; by December it is about 3:50pm. Light the garden path and the serving area.
- Send a picture of where the roaster could go.
- We confirm it works and send a quote.
- We cook for hours on site.
- Our staff serve rolls and sides.
- We leave the garden tidy.
How to prepare
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain

Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a barbecue, you’re not stuck flipping burgers all afternoon, and everyone eats together. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.
What you get with us
- Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
- No surprises: everything in writing
- Staff to serve, so you don’t have to
- Planned to your running order

On the day, we arrive hours before the party starts, so the smell is the first thing guests notice.

Prices and what affects them

Catered or do it yourself?
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience, especially outdoors.
Catered or DIY? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Our team serves at your chosen time and clears up afterwards
