DIY versus a catered hog roast
A DIY hog roast suits a relaxed party where someone enjoys cooking. For weddings and bigger events, a catered roast is usually easier.
Some hosts try a barbecue instead, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
FAQs for Farley Green
Do you come out to small places like Farley Green?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Could you cook in Cucknell's Wood?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
What if it rains?
Rain does not stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
How much will it be?
It depends on numbers, the menu and how long we’re on site. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
Do you serve the crackling?
Yes, the crackling is shared out as we carve.
Do you come to Farley Green?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Farley Green and Surrey. Send us the address for a quote.
When do you start roasting?
Hours rather than minutes. We’ll confirm our arrival time when we quote.
Do you clear up?
We clear the serving area and pack away, and leave the area tidy.

Is a hog roast right for your event?

Organising for someone else?

Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.
How it works
A typical booking goes like this: we arrive, set up under cover and start roasting, the roast cooks gently through the day, and we carve and serve at the agreed time. Because the roast takes hours, daylight is worth planning: in Farley Green, sunset is around 8:50pm in late May and 9:20pm in late June, while in December the light goes at about 3:55pm, so winter bookings need lighting from mid-afternoon.
- We start with a few details about your event.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a quote.
- Timings and the cooking area are agreed in advance.
- On the day we roast for hours, then carve to order.
- Our staff serve and clear, then we pack away.
Getting ready for the day
- Choose a level, open spot outdoors for the roaster
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Allergies and dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Remember that stuffing typically contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans for the halloumi skewers and vegan option
- Ask about allergies when you send invitations
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
On the day, you shouldn’t have to think about the food. We get there early, cook, carve and serve, and our staff clear the serving area afterwards.
We can supply china instead of standard plates, at an extra cost.
- Roasted slowly at your venue, outdoors and under cover
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
