How hog roast hire works in KT11
In KT11, a hog roast is an easy way to feed plenty of people: a single slow roast, carved to order. We bring the roaster, the cover and the serving kit, and our staff serve and clear. We’re often asked to cater parties at home and wedding breakfasts and evening food, with crackling, rotisserie chicken and new potatoes.
The roaster is gas-fired, so we do not need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting.
- It starts with your date, venue, numbers and serving time.
- We check availability and the space for the roaster and send a clear quote.
- On the day we arrive hours before serving and start the roast under cover.
- We carve and serve when you are ready to eat.
- We clear the serving area and pack away.
Prices in KT11

Hog roast hire across KT11
Across KT11, we cover 3 towns and 5 villages and hamlets, so the setting can be anything from Cobham, Oxshott and East Horsley to a quiet hamlet: a level outdoor spot, a way in and a plan.
Cobham: If you had West End Common in mind, ask the council or landowner first: we cannot simply set up a roaster in a public park. School fairs and fundraisers, for a school such as St Andrew's CofE Primary School, can book a hog roast stall. Late September evenings in Cobham lose the light at about 7:05pm, and at Christmas it comes at about 3:55pm. For anything after that, plan lights for the serving area.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.

About the food
Crackling
Good crackling needs time and heat, and a whole hog roasted slowly gets it just right.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Sides include salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and roast or jacket potatoes, to suit your event.
Looking after everyone
Some guests won’t eat pork, so plan an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Add a dietary question to your invitations
- Tell guests what’s on the menu in advance
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
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, quoted separately.
