A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a barbecue, a hog roast cooks in one go and is carved for everyone, instead of food coming off the grill in batches. Our guide compares the two. For larger numbers, a hog roast is normally good value, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

About the food
Crackling
For many people, the crackling is the best bit: crisp, golden and full of flavour, straight off the hog.
Roast pork
Our chef carves the pork as it is needed, which keeps it hot and moist right to the last roll.
Full catering or machine hire?
You could roast a hog yourself, but it’s a long day’s work, from setting up and lighting the roaster to carving. A catered hog roast means you can enjoy the day.
Buying in a cold buffet is another option, but hot, freshly carved roast pork is a different experience.
Wood Street Village questions
Do you cater at venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Could you cook in Broadstreet?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, usually the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Ask them first.
Is there a non-pork option?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We don’t offer halal meat.
Do you clear up?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Can you be flexible on serving time?
Because the roast takes hours, we plan from your serving time, and we can hold the roast for a while if the day runs behind.
Do you cover Wood Street Village?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Wood Street Village and the rest of Surrey included. Send us the address for a quote.
Is it just pork?
Add lamb or rotisserie chicken alongside the pork. Vegetarian and vegan options are available too.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
No, the roast is always cooked outdoors under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can often serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Planning for dietary needs
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans so we bring enough halloumi skewers and vegan burgers or sausages
- Request gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Label the vegetarian and vegan food clearly
- Remember that stuffing usually contains gluten, so ask for the allergen list
We bring the cover, the carving table and the serving kit, so all you need is the space.
We also hire out the roaster for DIY hog roasts.
