Hog roast hire in CR6: what to expect

In CR6, we cater birthdays, weddings, staff days and fêtes. The idea is always the same: slow roasting at your venue, then carving and serving. Typical bookings include corporate events and big birthdays and anniversaries, with hog roast rolls, salads and crackling.

When we arrive, we position the roaster under cover and get the hog cooking. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it’s ready when you want to eat.

  1. It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
  2. You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
  3. We arrive well ahead, put the cover up and get the hog roasting.
  4. We carve and serve when you’re ready to eat.
  5. We clear the serving area and pack away.

Hog roast catering in CR6: local guide

From Warlingham, Hamsey Green and Chelsham to 4 villages and hamlets, bookings across CR6 range from town gardens to farmyards, and a hog roast suits every kind of setting. In towns, plan access to the garden; in villages, tell us about lanes and ground.

Warlingham: Churches such as Church of All Saints rarely have room for a roaster, but a hall or home close by typically does. Among the historic houses close to Warlingham are Addington Palace (3.5 miles north) and Titsey Place (3.8 miles south-east). If your event is at a historic house or estate, check its rules on outside caterers and gas cooking early. By late September, sunset in Warlingham is around 7:05pm, and in December it’s nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
  • Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
  • Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
  • Add a dietary question to your invitations

Slow roasting needs attention, which is our job, not yours. You can relax and enjoy the day.

Ask for gluten-free rolls for anyone who needs them.

Catered or do it yourself?

DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.

Planners, venues and businesses

If you are organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We will keep everyone in the loop.

For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.

How we price a hog roast

Your quote depends on:

  • How easy it is to reach the spot
  • The serving time and how long we’re on site
  • The date and time of year
  • How many people are eating

When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.

What we need to know

To check the date and the space, tell us:

  • An estimate of numbers
  • Allergies we should know about
  • Your menu choices
  • Any venue rules

Getting a quote is simple: tell us when, where, how many and what time you’d like to eat. We’ll reply with a clear price and what’s included. Fill in our quote form.

Is a hog roast right for you?

Compared with a barbecue, one roast feeds everyone at once, so nobody stands at a grill all afternoon. Our guide compares the two.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Which meats, sides and extras are included
  • If the price includes VAT
  • Who carves and who serves
  • A clear list of what’s included
