Why choose a hog roast in Billingshurst?
Compared with a barbecue run by staff, we take the cooking off your team. Distance is part of the price: we include travel in the quote. Give us the address so the quote is accurate.
Why book with us
- Carved by our chef in front of your residents
- Crackling for everyone who wants it
- A clear quote with everything listed
- A choice of salads and potatoes
Read our pricing or our hog roast cost guide.
Planning for dietary needs
Rolls and stuffing generally contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. Other tips:
- Plan separately for halal if needed
- Include staff and visitors in your numbers
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Ask the kitchen to prepare texture-modified portions
Your team helps residents as needed.
Plates rather than rolls suit many residents.
How we price a hog roast day
The biggest factors are:
- Distance from us
- Access to the cooking area
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Details that help
For a quick, accurate price, tell us:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Rough numbers
- The address or postcode
- Rules from the venue or landowner
We price every booking individually, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Ask us for a quote for your care home event: fill in our quote form.

The process
Your timings come first. If things run late, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. By late September, the light in Billingshurst goes at about 7:05pm, so autumn events are best at lunchtime.
- We plan with your manager and kitchen.
- We send a quote.
- We cook in the grounds.
- Food goes out on plates.
- We leave the grounds tidy.
Before we arrive
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
