Hog roast hire across GU24

Hog roast hire means a whole pig roasted slowly at your venue, over several hours, outdoors under cover. Then our chef carves it and the team serves it in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and a piece of crackling. Typical bookings include Fêtes, fairs and shows and gatherings after a funeral, serving hog roast rolls, new potatoes and halloumi skewers.

Rain does not stop the roast, because we cook under cover. It is worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too.

First, tell us about your event.
You get an availability check and a clear quote.
We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
We serve, tidy up and leave the spot clean.

What you’ll pay

For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, since one roast goes a long way. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

What’s near West End

We set up the roaster for events around Holy Trinity, Gordon's School and Brentmoor Heath, among other places. The closest station to West End is Brookwood station, about 2.4 miles south. Other landmarks nearby include Chobham Museum (1.6 miles north-east) and Brookwood Hospital (1.8 miles south-east). The countryside around West End includes Brookwood Lye.

Planning a hog roast in GU24

GU24 covers everything from Woking, West End and Knaphill to 12 small villages and hamlets, and a hog roast suits every kind of setting. In towns, plan access to the garden; in villages, tell us about lanes and ground.

West End: If you had Brentmoor Heath in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we can’t simply set up a roaster in a public park. Churches such as Holy Trinity rarely have room for a roaster, but a hall or home close by typically does. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around West End, it stays light until about 9:20pm at midsummer, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.

How we price a hog roast

Each price is built from:

Which meats and sides you choose
The number of people
Crockery choices
Time on site

When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. The cheapest quote is not always the best value.

What we need to know

The more we know, the more accurate the quote. Please include:

Any venue rules
Your menu choices
Your date and serving time
Roughly how many people

We need a few details to quote: the date and serving time, the venue or GU24 postcode, rough numbers and which extras you’d like. Use our quote form.

For event organisers in GU24

For venues and planners, we are happy to work alongside your team.

Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.

What the cooking area needs

Before the day, it helps to think about where the roaster will go. The ideal spot has:

Parking near the spot
A step-free route to wheel the equipment in
A level patch of lawn, patio or hardstanding

A hog roast compared with other options

A hog roast has one downside: it’s pork. That is why we offer lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option.

Diets, allergies and alternatives

Rolls and stuffing normally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:

Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly

We will agree a contact for the day, ideally not the host, so you can enjoy yourself.

We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.

Your questions about a hog roast in GU24

Is mains power needed?

Not to cook, because the roaster is gas-fired. Tell us what’s available and we will plan around it.

What should we sort out beforehand?

A clear, level cooking spot, a route to wheel the equipment in and a contact for the day. We’ll bring the rest.

When do you start roasting?

A whole hog roasts for several hours, so we arrive well before you want to eat. We plan the timings from when you want to eat.

Do we need our own staff?

Our chef carves and our staff serve, and we clear up when service is finished.

What comes with the hog roast?

Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Your quote lists any sides and extras.

How does hog roast hire work?

We handle the roasting, carving and serving. Just give us an outdoor spot to cook.

How big a hog will we need?

We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.

Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
Carved by our chef into rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
Options beyond pork, including lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes
Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
