Your questions about a hog roast in Grandpont
We’re gathering after a service at St Matthew's: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you will gather.
How far is Grandpont from London?
Roughly 53 miles from the centre of London.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, for confident cooks. Ask and we’ll talk you through it.
Is crockery included?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Do you serve the crackling?
It is: slow roasting crisps the skin and we break it up for everyone.
What about coeliacs?
We can supply gluten-free rolls on request. We’ll give you full allergen information for every dish.
Is there a non-pork option?
We can add lamb or chicken, plus halloumi skewers for vegetarians and a vegan burger or sausage. Halal meat is not something we offer.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
Hog roast hire in Grandpont, carved to order
Slow-roasted pork carved to order: that is hog roast hire in Grandpont. Rolls, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling come as standard, and you can add sides and other meats. We serve salads, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken, and typical bookings are for summer garden parties and clubhouse events.
There may be a hall or playing field near Grandpont if the garden is small; any can work, with the owner’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

Why choose a hog roast in Grandpont?
Full catering or machine hire? With catering we roast, carve and serve; with hire you do the cooking. For bigger events, catering is usually the easier choice. What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
What you get with us
- Fresh carving at the serving station
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you’re confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we’ll confirm what comes with it when you ask.
A barbecue is the other obvious choice, but someone ends up cooking in batches all afternoon. With a hog roast, one roast feeds everyone at once.
A closer look at the menu
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, so it stays hot and juicy.
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Add salads, coleslaw and potatoes to make it a proper meal.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- If anyone needs halal food, plan a separate option
- Ask us to keep the vegetarian food separate and labelled
- Give us numbers for vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Put the menu on the invitation
Everything for serving comes with us, so all you need is the space.
We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.
