A hog roast compared with other options
DIY or catered? DIY hire works for relaxed get-togethers; catering suits bigger or more important parties. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. Slow roasting means we’re on site for much of the day, and the quote reflects that.

FAQs for Whitehill
Which station is closest to Whitehill?
The closest is Liphook station, roughly 3.7 miles away.
We’re gathering after a service at St Mark's Sacred Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
What space does the roaster need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Is mains power needed?
The roaster runs on gas, so we don’t need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Will the smell bother the neighbours?
Give them a heads-up, especially if the roaster is near a fence.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Will a hog roast fit in our garden?
Describe the space and the way in, and we will give you an honest answer.
Can you cater for vegetarians?
There are lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options: spit-roast lamb, rotisserie chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan burger or sausage. Please note we do not offer halal meat.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Our chef carves the pork, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling on the side
