West Kingston: your questions answered
Can you cater after a service at St Andrew's Church?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
Is West Kingston too small for a hog roast?
No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
When do you start roasting?
Several hours, depending on the size and the weather, which is why we arrive hours ahead. We work back from your serving time.
What if things run late?
We work back from when you want to eat, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
How much room do you need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will confirm the space with your quote.
How big a hog will we need?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Can you roast in the rain?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower does not stop us. Plan somewhere sheltered for eating.
About our party hog roast in West Kingston
Milestone birthdays call for something special, and a whole hog roasting in the garden is exactly that. Your guests will smell it from the street. Popular choices include jacket potatoes, hog roast rolls and apple sauce, and typical bookings are for reunions and retirement celebrations.
In a small place like West Kingston, a party in the garden or a nearby field is frequently the plan. Tell us about lanes and ground, and we will plan the route. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.

Why choose a hog roast in West Kingston?
Compared with a barbecue, you are not stuck flipping burgers all afternoon, and everyone eats together. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
What you get with us
- Sides to make it a full meal

- Cooked on the day, low and slow

Planning for dietary needs
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Plan separately for anyone who needs halal food
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Think about children’s portions
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
We get there early to start the roast, so it’s cooking when guests arrive.
A string of lights by the carving station looks great as it gets dark.
How we price a hog roast for your party
We work out each quote from:
- The serving time and how long we are on site
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- How many people are eating
- Plates or china
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What we need to know
When you enquire, it helps to include:
- The address or postcode
- A picture of the cooking area
- Anything the venue has asked for
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Getting a quote is simple: date, place, numbers and serving time. You will get a clear quote listing what’s included. Fill in our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so it is worth asking first. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If you’re organising for someone else, whether you are a planner, a PA or on a committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.
About the food
Rolls and gluten-free rolls
A hog roast roll is designed to be eaten in the hand. We can bring gluten-free rolls if you ask.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, roasted until golden.
Planning the cooking spot
Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:
- A spot well away from the house
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat
- A heads-up for next door
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.
From the roaster
- Jacket potatoes
- Coleslaw
- Hog roast rolls
- Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
- Salads
- Crackling
- Stuffing and apple sauce
- Halloumi skewers (V)

DIY versus a catered hog roast
The hardest part of a DIY hog roast is timing: a whole hog takes hours, and it needs to be cooked through safely. If that sounds stressful, choose the catered option.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
What happens on the day
Here’s how the day generally runs: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you’re ready. Sunset in West Kingston is about 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, so most summer parties eat in daylight. After about 4:00pm in December, we need light to carve.
- Show us the garden or drive.
- We check the space and quote.
- On the day, we roast slowly under cover.
- We serve when you are ready.
- We clear up so you do not have to.
Before we arrive
- Think about shelter for your guests
- Ask about allergies and dietary needs beforehand
- Tell us about narrow gates or side passages
