Hog roast hire across TN30

From Tenterden, St Michaels and Wittersham to 12 villages and hamlets, bookings across TN30 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. 5 of the places we cover in TN30 are within about 6 miles of the sea, so we often plan a sheltered spot for the roaster.

Tenterden: If you are gathering after a service at a church like Parish Church of St Mildred, a nearby hall or garden suits a hog roast. If you are organising a summer fair for a school like Tenterden Infant School, a hog roast is a crowd-pleaser. Evenings in Tenterden stay light until about 9:15pm in June, but by late September sunset is around 7:00pm; once it’s dark, we need light at the carving station.

Allergies and dietary needs

Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:

  • Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
  • If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
  • Ask about allergies when you send invitations
  • Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled

The roaster needs looking after for hours, and that is what we’re there for. You can get on with your event.

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

Your questions about a hog roast in TN30

Do you need power or water?

The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.

Where does the hog roast go?

Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We will check it with you before booking.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

Outside, always. Serving indoors is generally fine if the venue is happy.

When should we book?

Popular dates go early. But it is always worth asking: use our quote form.

Is crackling included?

Crackling is part of every roll for anyone who wants it.

What’s included?

Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
