Our hog roast hire in SM1
The format is simple and it works for almost any crowd: roast pork in a soft roll, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling, and alternatives for anyone who does not eat pork. Popular choices include salads, new potatoes and spit-roast lamb, and we’re often booked for christmas parties and village fêtes and school fairs.
A typical booking goes like this: the roaster goes up and the hog goes on, the roast cooks gently through the day, and our chef carves it when you’re ready.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the space and quote.
- We get the roaster going hours before you eat.
- The chef carves and the team fills rolls or plates.
- We pack away and leave you to it.
What it costs in SM1
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.

Hog roast hire across SM1
SM1 covers everything from Sutton, Carshalton and The Wrythe to 0 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.
Sutton: After a service at St Nicholas Church, the hog roast can be ready at a nearby hall or house. School fairs and fundraisers, for a school such as Robin Hood Junior School, can book a hog roast stall. Evenings in Sutton stay light until about 9:20pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:05pm; after dark, the serving area and the path to it need good lighting.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For bigger or more formal events, catering takes the pressure off.
Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, and gluten-free rolls are available on request. A few more tips:
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Put the menu on the invitation
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, and order an alternative for them
The roaster needs looking after for hours, which is our job, not yours. You can get on with your event.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.

What comes off the roaster

Can you cook inside a hall or marquee?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.
