Hog roast hire in KT24: what to expect

We roast the hog at your event, not in a kitchen miles away, which means it’s carved hot, with crisp crackling. Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options can go alongside. We’re frequently asked to cater community events and wedding breakfasts and evening food, serving crackling, salads and spit-roast lamb.

We roast under cover, so a shower will not spoil the food. It’s worth planning a sheltered place for people to eat, too.

  1. First, tell us about your event.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. We agree timings and where the roaster goes.
  4. On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
  5. Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.

What you will pay

For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. The menu, extras such as china and the serving time all affect the final price.

A hog roast across KT24: what to know

From East Horsley, West Horsley and Little Bookham to 1 villages and hamlets, bookings across KT24 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.

East Horsley: Coming by train? There’s a station right in East Horsley: Horsley station. School fairs and fundraisers, for a school such as The Raleigh School, can book a hog roast stall. In East Horsley, the sun sets at about 9:20pm in late June and about 7:05pm in late September, so summer evening service is normally in daylight. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the cooking and serving area needs lighting.
