Our hog roast hire in GU20
Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, over several hours, outdoors under cover. When it’s ready, our chef carves it and our staff serve it in soft rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and a piece of crackling. Popular choices include halloumi skewers, crackling and rotisserie chicken, and we are frequently booked for wakes and village fêtes and school fairs.
A hog roast is always cooked outside, under a gazebo on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches. We’ll agree the spot with you beforehand.

A hog roast across GU20: what to know
From Windlesham to 0 villages and hamlets, bookings across GU20 range from town gardens to farmyards, and a hog roast suits every kind of setting. Town bookings mean planning access; village bookings mean planning lanes and ground.
Windlesham: Thinking of a hog roast in Brentmoor Heath? Cooking in a park needs the owner’s permission, generally the council’s, and many parks don’t allow it. After a service at Church of St John the Baptist, the hog roast can be ready at a nearby hall or house. Late September evenings in Windlesham lose the light at about 7:05pm, and in December it is nearer 3:55pm. After dark, a lit path to the food makes a difference.
Planning for dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Here’s how to cover everyone:
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Find out who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, then clear up.
We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.
Prices and what affects them
Your quote depends on:
- Menu choices and extras
- Time on site
- How many people are eating
- Whether you want china
When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Details that help
Here’s what we’ll ask:
- What the outdoor space is like
- Any extras, such as lamb, chicken or china
- Your date and serving time
- Dietary requirements
The quickest way to get a price is to send us your date, venue and numbers. A picture of where the roaster could go helps us check the space. Use our quote form.
Organising for someone else?
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we will deal with on the day. We’ll keep you both updated.
Marquee suppliers normally set distances for cooking equipment, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We will keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. Buffets can sit out for hours.
