DIY versus a catered hog roast
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.
DIY hire works best when someone in the family loves cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is generally easier.
What comes off the roaster
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and our chef carves it to order.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Crunchy coleslaw suits roast pork, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Note which guests don’t eat pork, so we can add lamb, chicken or vegetarian options
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten
- Request gluten-free rolls if needed
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
We’ll liaise with your venue coordinator, so we can sort the cooking spot and timings with them.

Common questions in Deadwater
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about cooking and vehicles, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Which station is closest to Deadwater?
The closest is Liphook station, roughly 3.6 miles away.
Do we need to provide electricity?
Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. A socket nearby is useful for lighting.
Can we have both pork and lamb?
Lamb and chicken are both available alongside the hog.
Will guests be full?
For the main meal, add sides such as salads and potatoes; for evening food, rolls are generally enough.
How much room do you need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you’re unsure.
What if things run late?
We will be as flexible as we can. Keep us posted on the day and we will fit around changes.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
A hog roast or other catering?
Compared with a cold evening buffet, hot rolls carved to order go down much better. Travel matters for the price: travel is included in your quote, with any London charges listed. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.
