Hog roast hire in GU8: what to expect

In GU8, a hog roast is an easy way to feed plenty of people: one roast, slow-cooked for hours, carved in front of everyone. Everything comes with us, and our staff serve and clear. We serve coleslaw, rotisserie chicken and spit-roast lamb, and typical bookings are for clubhouse events and wakes and memorial gatherings.

From setting up to the last roll, we look after the food, so you can get on with your event.

  1. Send us your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the space and quote.
  3. We arrive early, set up under cover and start roasting.
  4. Our chef carves and our staff serve.
  5. We clear up and go.

Prices in GU8

For larger numbers, a hog roast is generally good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

What’s near Milford

Bookings here are often close to Milford School, Rodborough and The White Lion pub and the streets around them. You will also find Rodborough Common (0.9 miles south-west), St Hilary's School (1.5 miles north-east) and St John the Evangelist's Church (under half a mile south). The closest station to Milford is Milford (Surrey) station, about 0.8 miles south-east. A little further out are Godalming Museum (1.7 miles north-east) and Milford Hospital (1 mile east). Green spaces within easy reach include Lower Lake and Frith Hill.

Planning a hog roast in GU8

GU8 covers everything from Godalming, Milford and Elstead to 24 small villages and hamlets, and a hog roast works in all of them. In towns, plan access to the garden; in villages, tell us about lanes and ground. The Surrey Hills National Landscape is within easy reach of places across GU8, where some venues have extra rules about cooking and vehicles.

Milford: If you’re organising a summer fair for a school like Milford School, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser. Parks such as Rodborough Common generally need permission from the council or landowner for any cooking, so check first. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: around Milford, 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.

Organising for someone else?

If you’re booking for a workplace, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We’ll fit in with site rules.

Booking for a club or group? One clear contact makes everything easier, particularly when timings shift.

Who books hog roast hire?

A roll needs no knife and fork, which makes a hog roast ideal for relaxed events, while plates and sides suit a sit-down meal.

These are some of the most popular hog roast bookings near GU8:

  • Christmas parties
  • Milestone birthdays
  • Weddings and receptions
  • Parties at home

What comes off the roaster

Crackling

Long, slow roasting turns the skin into crackling, and we break it up so everyone gets a piece.

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)

For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.

Planning the cooking spot

Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:

  • Permission from the venue or landowner
  • A sheltered place for people to eat if it rains
  • Vehicle access close to the cooking area

Is a hog roast right for you?

Compared with a cold buffet, hot roast pork carved in front of you is a different experience. Buffets can sit out for hours.

  • The space, cover and access they need

FAQs for GU8

Popular dates go early. But do ask even at short notice: send us your details through our quote form.

How do we prepare?

Only the space and a contact number. We bring the roaster, cover and serving kit.

How long does a hog roast take to cook?

Hours rather than minutes. You’ll know our arrival time in advance.

Do you cover the whole of Surrey?

What space does the roaster need?

Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll check it with you before booking.

What if it rains?

Rain does not stop the cooking. Somewhere covered for people to eat helps.

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 don’t offer halal meat.

  • Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
  • Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
  • Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
  • Staff to serve at the agreed time, then clear away
